One more to close up and balance out.

A small-town boy's first job in a dreary Milan office culminates in an painfully absurd office #Christmas party. By times foreshadowing Roy Andersson's ennui, Ermanno Olmi's Il posto [The Job] (1961) is the story of Italy's postwar generation coming of age, warts and all.

Post-pandemic, some things have gone back to normal, some things haven't:

* We showed that we could work just as well from home, but now we have to go back to the office or look for another job

* We showed that 90 minute virtual Zoom office Christmas parties at ten o-clock on a Tuesday morning in the middle of December are shit, but somehow that's still A Good Idea
