Instead of Tiger King, possibly watch some great, some entertaining, some thought-provoking films that use isolation, loneliness, solitude, pandemic, quarantine, and at times, impending doom or death as a plot device. Yes, some of these are pure fun, maybe even horror, but they all have a bit of a similar theme. And no, not all of these are dark and depressing.
