#TheSandman early review:
Neil Gaiman with his brilliant team and cast have made a beautiful and intricately woven visual adaptation of The Sandman graphic novel and my only wish is that @netflix would make it a weekly episode run to increase the buzz for this amazing show. pic.twitter.com/cRFpOX9JJd— Cinema Ghana (@cinema_ghana) August 4, 2022
