Good to know

These are standalone prestige stories with no shared continuity, so there is no chronological order to untangle. Release order shows the documentary short eye move into ticking clock features. High Noon is the hinge to watch first for Cooper clock. Five Days in 1982 is the final feature with Alps and no upcoming.
