Great Actors And Movies

By Steve Mildred

Nowadays, most people forgo the movie theaters, and just wait for movies to come out on DVD, or arrive at Blockbuster. Now we are now able to find movies to download with a movie download site. Here is a sample of the kinds of films which people are downloading from movie download sites.

Pulp fiction is a must see movie. This is director Quentin Tarantino's best work. With stars like Bruce Willis, John Travolta, Uma Thurman, and Samuel L. Jackson, you can't go wrong. I won't even try to explain the plot.

The Godfather is the ultimate mafia movie. It tells the story of aging Don Vito Corleone (Marlon Brando), head of one of the big New York mafia families. When Don Vito is shot by a rival mafia gang member there is a blood bath resulting in the death of Sonny (James Caan), the Don's first son. This leaves the future of the Corleone family in the reluctant hands of Michael (Al Pacino). At first reluctant to join in the "family" business, the killings turn Michael into a ruthless and determined mafia family leader.

The Dark Knight is the latest of the Batman movies. This is a darker and seedier version than the other Batman movies with spectacular special effects that has made it the top box office in 2008. In this movie we see Batman battle one of his classic rivals, the Joker.

Twelve Angry Men is an old (1957) classic. The story follows the jury deliberations of a murder trial. Juror number 8, Mr. Davis (Henry Fonda) is the lone dissenter, as the other 11 votes see the defendant as guilty. Eventually Mr. Davis gets the other jurors to drop their predispositions, and prejudices, and view the evidence more closely on its own merits. 12 Angry Men was one of the first noteworthy courtroom dramas.

Casablanca stars Humphrey Bogart and Ingrid Bergman. It is considered one of the best films ever made. It's during WW2, in North Africa, and Rick (Humphrey Bogart) risks his life to send the woman he loves Ilsa (Ingrid Bergman) to safety in America with her husband. This 1942 film has truly stood the test of time.

"In a distant galaxy far, far away". Star Wars is the classic sci-fi adventure for an entire generation. The setting is science fiction but the story line is a classic one, good versus evil. Darth Vader, the dark one, is pitted against the young Jedi warrior Luke Skywalker control of the universe is at stake.

The Lord of the Rings: The Return of the King follows the first two movies to the conclusion of the trilogy. All the forces of Middle Earth prepare for battle as Sam and Frodo desperately try to make it to Mount Doom and destroy the One Ring and hopefully save Middle Earth.

One Flew Over The Cuckoo's Nest is a film classic. This film takes an inside look at what it is like inside a mental institution as a patient. Jack Nicholson is simply outstanding as R. P. McMurphy, the main character.

In Shawshank Redemtion, Andy (Tim Robbins) has been sent to Shawshank prison, wrongly convicted of killing his wife. Inside Shawshank he forms a powerful friendship with fellow prisoner Red (Morgan Freeman). He refuses to give up, and his decent spirit helps improve the lives of his fellow prisoners. His escape, and Red's release see the two reunite outside of prison, in Mexico, when Andy's grand plan is finally fulfilled.

This list is just a few of the nearly unlimited number of motion pictures that are available to download online. Online movie downloads could be the best way to build a vast movie library. Using movie downloads is a new way people are using the Internet for entertainment.
