Thursday (2020)
Thursday shot from filmmaker Galen Johnson's high-rise apartment during COVID-19 “lockdown” in Winnipeg, captures people going about their daily routines in the city's eerily empty streets, yards and parking lots, on their balconies and on the riverbanks. The extreme distance and the diminutive scale of humans is paired with sound close-ups—a combination that embodies the strange, heightened intensity of feeling of the time, knowing an era-defining tragedy is happening yet being so physically removed.

In truth, there is barely enough story here to make a film.
It was OK. I don't see why everyone loves it so much. It wasn't very smart or deep or well-directed.
All of these films share one commonality, that being a kind of emotional center that humanizes a cast of monsters.
Blistering performances.
