From the producers of the western film, "Old Henry" (2021). That was and is one of the best Westerns I've seen in the last decade. I actually walked into a movie theater to watch it.
"The Isolate Thief" looks to be another good one. I think I'll walk into a movie theater again because I love Westerns.... Wahoo.!

Lester Holt Reports for a Special ‘Dateline’ This Friday, June 5 at 10/9 p.m.
"Friday’s all-new Dateline will go inside the Luigi Mangione investigation, revealing exclusive new details and insight in the case that continues to captivate the world. For the first time, two NYPD Major Case Squad detectives who worked on the case take Dateline through the lead-up to the murder of United Healthcare CEO Brian Thompson and the urgent manhunt that followed."
"Retired Detective Sergeant John Griffin tells Dateline anchor Lester Holt about his first reaction to seeing the weapon used in the killing, 'It had something on the front, like a homemade suppressor or silencer-type thing.'
Asked by Holt whether that was common, Griffin responded, "No. In 25 years, I don’t think I’ve ever actually encountered a silencer before that."
"The one-hour special, entitled A Killing in Midtown, also features a member of Thompson’s inner circle speaking publicly about the case for the first time. Jeff Alter, a friend and former colleague, tells Holt about the social media reaction to Thompson’s death, 'Social media is fast and cruel, people posting, you know, smiley faces that — that somebody was murdered just — it’s just beyond me,' Alter explained.
"He added that the response was, 'really cruel,' particularly for those who knew Brian personally."
"A Killing in Midtown also features interviews with people who met Mangione while he traveled, including a pro soccer player in Thailand and a yoga teacher in Hawaii. Mangione has pleaded not guilty to the murder."
20/20 (ABC).... "A man wakes up to find his fiancée dead. A shocking confession changes everything."
48 Hours (CBS).... "Veteran reporter Joe Nocera, of The Free Press, investigates a 94-year-old murder case that deserves a second look: the kidnapping and murder of Charles Lindbergh, Jr. Little Lindy was the infant son of the most famous man in the world at the time: an aviator who had achieved impossible feats."
"Unsurprisingly, the case was a media sensation in 1932: especially when German immigrant Bruno Hauptmann was tried and executed for the crime. Hauptmann professed his innocence to the end: but could he have been telling the truth? This is a series that asks: was this case America's first great conspiracy?"
Dateline (NBC).... "Hey Dateline fans! As a bonus for you, we’re sharing the trailer for 'Five Miles From Home' an all-new original podcast series from Dateline and Keith Morrison."
"When beloved high school junior Micaela Costanzo disappears on her way home from track practice, the race to find her leads to unlikely suspects, simmering rage, and unimaginable betrayal. Keith Morrison takes us to a small Nevada casino town to find out what really happened that night under the desert sky."
