Two Nerds finally watched Two Distant Strangers, an Oscar-winning short film which takes the Groundhog Day premise of a single, repeating day, and applies it to a situation where a white cop shoots a Black man over and over again. (So content warning for racist violence.) We watched a lot of Groundhog Day-like narratives a while back, and the way Two Distant Strangers centers Black America makes the central premise feel very very different. One film it reminded me of was a local Minneapolis film from 2018 called Black, which was retitled Black in Minneapolis and rereleased in 2020.
