It wasn’t that long ago that a trip to the corner video shop was the most convenient way to get a movie. These days you can stay at home and get movies from a movie download site. Below is a sample of some of the movies you can find using movie download sites.

For Queen and Country: This is a striking modern day thriller of Life in England. Washington is well cast as a prior paratrooper who battles for existence in an environment of racism, poverty, and corruption, and then loses his British citizenship due to a legal technicality. Cast includes Denzel Washington, Dorian Healey, Amanda Redman, Ocean Chapman, and Bruce Payne. (105 minutes, 1989)

Harry Potter and the Sorcerer’s Stone: On Harry’s eleventh birthday, he learns about who he is. He is the orphaned son of two very powerful wizards. He too has magical powers, and he is invited to Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry. He is off on the biggest adventure imaginable.

Striptease: Erin Grant is a stripper at the Eager Beaver. She is trying to raise enough money to get her daughter back from her divorced jerk of a former husband. Things spin out of control for Erin when a corrupt congressman comes to the club and takes a liking to her.

The Priests Wife: Hardly amusing blend of drama and humor with Loren as a disenchanted singer who imagines she could persuade pastor Mastroianni to acquire discharge from his promise of celibacy and wed her. Weightier addressing of this topic might be heard on talk shows. Cast includes Sophia Loren, Marcello Mastroianni, Venantino Venantini, Jacques Stany, Pippo Starnazza, and Augusto Mastrantoni. (106 minutes, 1971)

Law of the Lawless: An all star veteran cast is of chief interest here, with Robertson an ex-gunman turned law man. Cast includes Dale Robertson, Yvonne De Carlo, William Bendix, Bruce Cabot, Richard Arlen, and Kent Taylor. (88 minutes, 1964)

A Good Woman: Another rendition of Oscar Wilde’s Woman Windermere’s Fan which was filmed a few times over the years. This time it is set in Italy instead of England and updated from the 1890s to the 1930s. A number of Wilde’s British characters now are Americans; one of them is Mrs. Erlynne a sorely miscast Seek, a bankrupt adventuress who shows up in Amalfi and decides to seduce very wealthy, recently wedded Robert Windermere Umbers. Cast includes Helen Seek, Scarlett Johansson, Milena Vukotic, Stephen Campbell Moore, Mark Umbers, Tom Wilkinson, and Diana Hardcastle. (93 minutes, 2005)

Sextette: Amazing is the only word for this comedy in reference to a Hollywood glamour girl whose numerous ex-spouses keep popping up while she is on her latest honeymoon. Naturally there’s shock value in noticing octogenarian Mae still strutting her stuff, however it wears out pretty quick. Cast includes Mae West, Tony Curtis, Ringo Starr, Dom DeLuise, Timothy Dalton, George Hamilton, Alice Cooper, Keith Moon, Rona Barrett, and Walter Pidgeon. (91 minutes, 1978)

Copycat: Helen Hudson is being asked out of retirement to investigate a baffling set of murders. Hudson is a forensic psychologist specialized in serial killers. With detective M.J. Monahan, the two start to uncover the mystery. When the killer learns the two are tracking him, they become his next target.

For Roseanna: Sugary, well-intentioned film in regards to a gentleman who has vowed his spouse, who’s terminally sick, that she can be buried in their village churchyard cemetery however with only a few empty plots left, he takes it upon himself to keep the other townspeople alive! Cast includes Jean Reno, Mercedes Ruehl, Polly Stroller, Mark Frankel, Giuseppe Cederna, and Renato Scarpa. (95 minutes, 1997)
