During Covid-19, the lights went out in movie theaters across the country along with countless restaurants, bars, sporting event, churches, and schools. At first, crowds of 500 were prohibited, then 100, then 50, and, finally 10. Physical distancing is in order, preferably six feet; yes, wearing masks outdoos is commonplace now.Since people are strongly encouraged to stay home, I am recommending some movies to watch while sitting on the couch or doing household chores.
