When I saw Sinners, one scene that went over my head was the “baptism” moment between Preacher Boy & Remmick. Until I discussed the film with others, who also had more religious context than I had.

The Prayer scene with Kenny , reminds of that.

the “Christian girl” (M.I.Y.) getting Kenny to pray—even though he says he’s not religious—it feels intentional.

Why pick Kenny specifically?

Is this like a Dark Knight’s Bane-type idea where you need hope before you can create real despair? Like, are they trying to build belief in him just to twist it later?

And if so… what do you think that leads to?
