The Thursday Club is an intriguing documentary that peels back layers of memory and trauma. Directed by George Paul Csicsery, it takes us back to the turbulence of 1967, where a single moment of violence at an antiwar demonstration in Oakland sets the stage for a deeper exploration. Csicsery’s journey to track down the policemen involved offers a captivating look at accountability and the weight of the past. The pacing feels reflective, blending past and present through personal storytelling and historical context. It’s not just about the event itself—there’s a haunting atmosphere that permeates as Csicsery grapples with his own experiences and the broader implications of those turbulent times. It’s distinctive for its blend of the personal with the political.
