Older Movies and Where to See Them for Free
I Love Old Movies
My Mom got me hooked on old movies when I was just a child.So, Alfred Hitchcock, Cary Grant, Katherine Hepburn; all their movies bring back fond memories for me.
There are certain qualities to the acting and to the use of black and white that make these old movies more enjoyable than many of the big budget, special effects laden movies of today. The old movies seem more pure. The focus is more on the acting and less on the sound track, explosions, or imagery. Hopefully, the quality is not lost on those that did not grow up with black and white movies.

Free Movie Sites
Although there are some wonderful channels that show old movies, it can be pretty hard to find some of the more obscure ones on DVD. Fortunately, they are often available on the internet for free, due to their copyright expiring.

- Great lens! I love Hitchcock films myself; Psycho shows you don't need a film to be in "technicolor gore-o-rama" to be scary!
