Sundown

Cattleman John Brent heads east to obtain financial aid for western cattlemen. President Theodore Roosevelt tells the cattlemen they will be forced to give way to the advance of civilization, and their ranges will be divided into homesteads. On the train home with Brent is Ellen Crawley, who is going with her father and small brothers to take up a homestead. Ellen meets Hugh Brent, John's son. Brent meets with the cattlemen. They decide they will have to give up their cattle ranges to the homesteaders, and go to Mexico, where there is ample grazing land. Ellen and her father set up their homestead. The cattlemen start the big drive, but the cattle stampede and wreck the Crawley's home, leaving the family with nothing. Although the cattlemen have no sympathy for the Crawleys, Hugh insists they take the family along in a grub wagon. Slowly, Ellen, with her good cooking and willingness to help, makes the cattlemen change their attitude towards her. When a prairie fire breaks out, Hugh tries to get through to warn the other cattlemen, but he is burned. Ellen nurses him back to health, which earns her the elder Brent's gratitude. The railroad refuses permission for the herds to cross into Mexico. So the cattlemen take the railroad by force, block four locomotives, and cross into Mexico. Once there, the cattlemen take up a collection for Ellen to start a new home for her family. Hugh tells her as soon as he is settled he will come back for her and marry her.

Amish Stud: The Eli Weaver Story

1 hr 25 mins
While he's out fishing with his Mennonite friend Jeremiah Peters on the morning of 2 June, Amish Eli Weaver receives a message via a call to Jeremiah's cell phone that Eli's wife, 29-year-old Barbara Weaver, has been found shot dead in their bed. While the Amish elders want to deal with the issue solely within their community, the Wayne County Sheriff's Department is forced to investigate in the murder having taken place in their jurisdiction, the two investigators being Detectives Bruce London and Mike Maxwell. What is subsequently shown is the current investigation interspersed with flashbacks of Eli and Barbara's life, which Eli admits to the investigators was not always perfect. Those flashbacks show that prior to their marriage, Barbara wanted to marry for romantic love, which is not the Amish way. Eli seemingly wanted the same; he was the black sheep of his family in not always adhering to Amish strictures. London and Maxwell have their theories of who the murderer is; they suspect Eli, who isn't reacting like a typical grieving husband and father, but they know they'll have problems finding evidence because the Amish Eli will have no digital footprint; and the community's sole telephone is a public one for emergencies, usable by anyone. They hope that the unofficial traditional Amish communication network, rampant gossip, will provide some clues. They find that some talk emerges in the form of a collection of women not in the community who were a part of Eli's secret life as the Amish Stud.
