In the beautifully filmed, single-shot opening to the period-piece drama “Call Jane,” we follow Elizabeth Banks’ elegantly attired Joy in a “Mad Men” type setting as she makes her way through the lobby of a downtown Chicago hotel where her lawyer husband’s firm is hosting a shindig, with Joy eventually emerging through the revolving doors and witnessing the jarring site of nightstick-brandishing policemen in their powder-blue helmets lined up as protesters chant, “The whole world is watching, the whole world is watching, the whole world is watching!”
Welcome to 1968, Joy. Your whole world is about to change as well.
