The Hijacker Who Vanished: The Mystery of DB Cooper (2020)

John Dower directs Jo Weber, Duane Weber and Tina Mucklow in this documentary looking at the various suspects considered in the unsolved lone bomber airplane piracy case that occurred in 1971.

A pretty unsensational true crime retrospective that benefits from avoiding making any definitive conclusions or relying on forced cliffhangers… a bane of the sub-genre in recent years. The unique crime itself and the strange menagerie of living room obsessives still trying to promote their own solutions make this extremely watchable.
