MOVIES ON DVD ---- That Don't Make You Blush

With Blockbuster and Hollywood Video in our rearview mirrors, watching a movie on DVD is not as simple as it once was. Add to that the fact that theaters aren’t showing movies that Christians would care to see. But if you like old movies or the few suitable new ones now available, I can make a suggestion.

Join Netflix.

Note:

I am not an employee of Netflix nor am I being paid to say this.

Nevertheless, for ten dollar a month (via a credit card) you can have movies on DVD sent directly to your home with a return envelope and free postage included. Simply watch the movie, put it in the envelope and send it back. Here is the address for Netflix.

Tips:

Netflix has thousands of available movies you can rent on DVD. To see what movies they have, click BROWSE DVD's at the top of the screen. To see if a movie you might want is available, look near the top of the screen on the right. 

In small letters, you will see the words [Movies TV shows, actors, directors, genres] Delete those words and write in the movie you want to see in its place. For example, write The Kings Speech over those words. I KNOW they have that movie, but you could write in that title as a kind of practice.  

The Kings Speech will come up. If you like that movie and want to see it, click on it. There will be a place to click on again, stating that you want them to send you that movie as a DVD. At that point, they will show you other similar movies. Click on the one you want. If not, write another movie in the spot (Movies TV shows----etc.]  

To get you started, here is a list of movies you might like. These are all "clean" movies, and you might have seen some of them. But it's always fun to see them again. 

Here is the list:    
 

Unconquered                                                               Emma

Pride and Prejudice                                                     Mansfield Park   

Sense and Sensibility                                                   Jane Eyre 

Samson and Delilah                                      Ann of a Thousand Days 

Raintree County                                                          Persuasion 

The Ten Commandments                                             Ben Hur 

The Inheritance                                                           Tuck Everlasting 

Vertigo                                         The Secrets of Jonathon Sperry  

Great Expectations                                                    Tale of Two Cities 

Deja Vu                                                                       The Red Pony 

National Velvet                                                           Blind Side   

Anne of Green Gables                        Little Lord Fauntleroy 

David and Bethsheba                                                  El Cid  

National Velvet                                                         Blind Side   

While You Were Sleeping                                         Oliver Twist
The Count of Monte Cristo                                       Rear Window

After you have made twenty or thirty DVD selections, go to the top of the screen and click YOUR QUEUE to see a list of the movies you have selected. When you reach that page, you can decide the order of the movies you want sent. 

I will be adding more titles in the days and weeks to come and reviewing many of these titles. If you like good movies and don’t like most of the ones available in theaters today, Netflix might be the way to go.
