Netflix streaming, available on other streaming services as a rent.

A pretty decent movie. Not the most realistic movie of the year, but not so much you can't get past it.
A young woman, who made a mistake in her past that resulted in a felony on her record, is desperate to get a better job to pay off her student loans and be able to get her own apartment etc.
She stumbles on a credit card fraud ring that pays her to shoplift using fake credit cards. She learns she can make fast cash and ends up getting too involved and lands herself in real trouble.
It's been done before, nothing new here. But it's "free" on Netflix, can't find anything else - it is not a bad one.
P.S. - the main actress is a solid actor. But this is the 2nd film in which they try to make her hot... uh... she's not. Quit trying.

 
I savor a good series by just watching one episode a evening.

The playoffs intruded last evening but damn it was worth it. What a comeback!
That is what we do also. I never want to binge watch shows.

Also - The Servant has a new episode out... talk about a good series! (AppleTV)
If you don't have AppleTV - you should get it for sure. Even if you only pay for one month. It is dirt cheap and has several outstanding series.
The Servant - outstanding
The Essex Serpent - slow burn, but solid
Ted Lasso (Sitcom) - very good
And then Severance - way up there. One of the best series out there for sure. Completely different from anything you have ever seen. Super good.

She doesn't have to try. All she has to do is show up, and be herself.
