Ruth,

IMDB is really a great resource.

Let me think about what we own on DVD. Serious movies? Comedy?

Re: Little Miss Sunshine. We HATED that movie. Blech!

One that just popped in my head. Doctor Zhivago!

imdb is outstanding. There are interesting points of trivia and goofs on each movie.

I want to suggest "The Player", "The Breakfast Club", "Working Girl", and maybe "American Grafitti", "Chinatown", "Edward Scissorhands"or "The Great Liebowski".

There is a "woman in white" theme in "The Player" and "American Grafitti", a theme in many movies.

These are interesting in their own right and worth seeing a second time. You can get old television shows on Netflix also.

My kids were young in the 1980s, so there are lots of film that I have not seen from that era also.

yeah DH told me yesterday that there are some bluray players that will stream netflix too, or you can drop the $100 on a roku (sp?) OR you can get a laptop to TV cord if your computer is near a tv or you have a laptop. People say its "grainy" but I think they are being techno-purists!

I don't have a laptop but my living room is pretty tiny and the computer and TV around about 6 feet apart. Is it possible to run a cable from the computer to the TV?
