It Was Like A Dream I Remember from an Easier Time is a fascinating dive into the American experience during the pandemic. This documentary uses a computerized voice that really feels eerie, almost like it’s commenting on a world that’s fallen apart while showing the stark visuals of Los Angeles. The pacing is quite deliberate, allowing those haunting images to linger, making you confront the contrast between the glam of the city and the raw truth of everyday struggles. It’s not just about the lockdown; it’s about social inequality—like a mirror reflecting a harsh reality we often overlook. The use of practical effects, or rather the absence of them, really drives home the point. It’s a heavy watch, but one that sticks with you.
