This Forgotten, Hardboiled 100% Rotten Tomatoes-Rated Historical Crime Thriller Just Landed on Max

For all you American presidential history nerds out there, I'm sure you have some awareness of the Lincoln-Kennedy Coincidences. Ranging from the number of letters in their names to the details of their assassinations, the laundry list of coincidental similarities between the personal and political histories of Abraham Lincoln and John F. Kennedy is one of the strangest Matrix glitches in history, and it somehow extended into Hollywood. In 1951, before John F. Kennedy was even a notable politician, a thriller called The Tall Target dared to ask, "what if Abraham Lincoln was saved from assassination by a guy named... John Kennedy?" There isn't a punchline coming, I swear.
