There is something perfect about SWINTON deploying a bunch of gorgeously rendered metallic masks that are in the shape of what I think are exotic insects. I didn’t see it coming, and yet how could it be any other way? Of COURSE she is not pulling out her drugstore PPE, or her masks from The Gap. OF COURSE SWINTON has a bespoke metalwork person.

She will never NOT scream Narnia to me. It’s very Narnia Poppins. You can walk through the wardrobe, but you’d better have cleaned and organized it first.

I also love seeing SWINTON try to talk to people through it. I hope it has megaphone qualities, and maybe shoots an antiviral mist out of its tentacles. Perhaps that’s Version 2.0.
