School will soon be back in session, or maybe it will, or it will for some students and not for others, and don’t even get us started on who will be wearing masks and who will not.
It’s confusing, is what it is. And when we get confused, we like to do what Americans always do when they don’t know how to behave in certain circumstances: We watch how characters handle the same issues in the movies and on TV.
