We'll dive into the data, dissecting how the Pacific Northwest's favorable weather and audience enthusiasm have driven theater attendance to surprising heights, making August a contender for the best box office month since 2017.
We'll also shine a spotlight on some standout films that have captivated audiences and critics alike. Hear about "Sing Sing," the compelling drama featuring Coleman Domingo and real-life incarcerated men, and how its raw performances are generating Oscar buzz.
