The Supermarket2009

Jenkins:
[voiceover] To say that death hits hard in a small town is an understatement. The entire population goes into a sort of depressive state, and it feels as though life grinds to a near-halt. It was like Ellington itself, the very land, went into mourning, with a blanket of mist, like a natural veil that couldn't be lifted. It didn't seem fair, and maybe that was what hit me the most. How unfair it all was. For Joe, for Ellington, for the Supermarket, for all the people who worked there. But it didn't matter. Life isn't fair, and there's nothing you can do about it. Nothing. One of the most powerful effects was the way it made everyone so introspective. Made you think about what you've done, what you wanna do, what you'll be remembered for. What you'd miss. Sometimes it sickens me that it takes something like this for us all to take a step back and think.
