By Kurt Whitehead

These days there are many options to get a movie to view at home. You can continuously go to the local video store, there are subscription services and you can even put a search into a search engine and come up with a whole inventory of services that allow you to download motion pictures.

Select from the list below and download a excellent movie to watch tonight.

Liar Liar - Fletcher Reede is a hard working attorney who is always disappointing his wonderful little son. Finally, before blowing out the candles at his birthday, Max makes his wish. He requests his father to not be able to lie for one whole day. The outcomes are completely comical.

Philadelphia - Andrew Beckett is a gay lawyer who has Aids. He is dying of the illness. He was terminated from the old-fashioned law firm he worked for because there was worry of contracting the illness from him. As he battles to live on, he selects to sue the law firm, to help further the cause of other Aids victims. His initially homophobic attorney, fights through his prejudice to fight for this cause.

Jack of Diamonds - Hamilton plays a cat burglar who steals gems from Baker, Gabor, and Palmer, who are "special guests" in this film. Circumvent this one and wait for "To Catch a Robber" to be shown. Cast includes George Hamilton, Joseph Cotten, Marie Laforet, Maurice Evans, Carroll Baker, Zsa Zsa Gabor, and Lilli Palmer. (67 minutes,'67)

Encino Man - When Stoney and Dave are digging a hole in Dave's backyard for a swimming pool., they come across, a prehistoric man, frozen in a block of ice. When the ice thaws, the prehistoric man, they name Link, comes to life. Can Link learn to live in the modern world?

Afurika Monogatari - Guide Sayer crashes his aircraft in wilds of Africa and comes upon a game conserve. Even old Jimmy is boring. The film was filmed in Kenya. Cast includes James Stewart, Philip Sayer, Eleanora Vallone, and Heekura Simba. (120 minutes,'81)

The Last Time I Saw Archie - Webb's single try at comedy is less daft than some of his more serious films; a shame, since William Bowers' script-based on his own Army experiences had real potential, and Mitchum pleasurably underplays as the con guy. By the way, the genuine Archie Chamber sued for invasion of privacy. Cast includes Robert Mitchum, Jack Webb, Martha Hyer, France Nuyen, Louis Nye, Richard Arlen, Don Tangles, Joe Flynn, and Robert Strauss. (98 minutes,'61)

Borderline - Unusual thriller comedy in which L.A. policeman Trevor tries to collect proof contrary to cunning drug smuggler Burr when mixing with hard gentleman MacMurray in Mexico. Starts out hopefully, although eventually slows down in silliness. Burr makes a lucid scoundrel.The cast includes Fred MacMurray, Claire Trevor, Raymond Burr, Jose Torvay, Morris Ankrum, and Roy Roberts. (88 minutes,'50)

You will also end up getting a high-quality, unabridged movie that is akin to what you would get at a video store and all from the ease and convenience of your own quarters. And it is absolutely legal. - 30202
