Scenes from an Empty Church

Directed by Onur Tukel, a very funny and creative heir apparent to the Woody Allen NY school of filmmaking. Seen a couple other of his movies and they are very good, although this one is better (but he doesn't act in it). You'd have to WATCH it for awhile to get a point of reference but could even listen to it and be compelling. One of the vignettes stands out from the others, too. Chilling.

The movie through partial humor and honesty show the crazy rules that don't make sense. The COVID-19 pandemic put the world in a spin, but the governmental response though virtue signaling measures shows the significant lack of human connection. This movie tells a story of 2 priests in the church during the pandemic and the divide that the government put between even friends.

I created an account just to write this review ( I have seen nothing else about it). It really captured the fears, ridiculousness and hope we have all, in our very human ways have tried to hold on to through this scourge. There is no deep message here to be had; merely, people trying to grasp what is happening around them. There is humor, drama, biting commentary and overall good work by everyone involved. Not a 'message' movie- unless the message is, life MUST go on.

I hated this movie because some people ain't wearing masks and it's people like that who ain't slowing no spread. Follow the science and get vaxxed. Sorry, your review is too short. It needs to contain at least 150 characters.
