I found it painful to get thru the 3 minutes.
The Culper Ring used code names to hide the identities of operatives. Even Washington had one—Agent 711. As head of intelligence, Tallmadge created the Culper Code Book, which assigned ciphers to 763 names or words. The number 219 denoted “gun”; 223 meant “gold”; 701 meant “woman.”
Indeed, according to the Central Intelligence Agency, “General Washington was more deeply involved in intelligence operations than any American general-in-chief until Dwight Eisenhower during World War II.”

Here's a comment I found on another popular site.
It may be a larp, but it's still interesting.
I am a senior project manager for Regal Theatres and you won't believe this but starting on January 7
Across the country we are retrofitting theaters to be emergency rooms; low-security, limited-capacity detainment or containment areas with medical facility infrastructure; and high-capacity morgues. This was a rapid contract we "won" from the federal government that, if you want the short version more or less came out of, undisclosed high-level mitigation proceedings prior to bankruptcy measures. We own the buildings so this is a way to segue out of the movie biz. Look, I can't talk to you about intent or motive or the backstory, just this project.
Basically we're creating more urgent care hospitals and morgues

the local theatres I looked up yesterday all had only the 355 listed, now they have full listings.

Hmmm... my 2 local theaters are showing 7 different movies, all listed past the 6th with new ones coming out at the end of next week.
ETA: the theaters are AMC, Emagine and MJR
Movie isn't specified, but run length matches 355 to the minute, and is available for nearly every time slot on most of their screens.

Sure thing. I have a handful of free tickets for AMC theaters. Send me a message.
You're on your own for concessions though.

Yes many look like that but if you specify the 7th it looks different.
