Movie Download Sites Have All The Old Movies We Love

There have been so many movies made over the last century that it can be hard to choose titles for your movie downloads. New films seem to appear daily, crowding out older ones. However, there are many movies that remain true classics but are often overlooked.

In 1958, the film “A Night to Remember” was released, and it may be the most authentic account regarding the Titanic sinking. It featured a large cast, but probably the best known to American audiences were Honor Blackman, Kenneth More, and David McCallum. At the time it was written, there were many survivors still living, and extensive interviews were conducted, providing many details about the night.

Everyone considers John Wayne one of the most prolific stars of the American cinema. “Stagecoach” is often cited as the role that made him famous, but he turned in better performances. Among his best were “The Searchers”, “The Shootist”, “The Sands of Iwo Jima”, “The Man Who Shot Liberty Valance”, and “The Quiet Man”. His 1954 film, “The High and the Mighty” was the original airplane disaster movie, and, like later films of the type, had a cast of stars. The action is set on a flight that comes into dire circumstances over the Pacific Ocean. It was kept off the market for many years and was rarely seen.

If you prefer to combine your romance with comedy, check out “Pride and Prejudice” with Greer Garson as the prejudiced one and Laurence Olivier as the proud one. It is based on a novel by Jane Austen, and is a period piece of parents seeking husbands for five daughters. “The Philadelphia Story” serves up Katherine Hepburn as a blue-blood about to remarry. Cary Grant, as the ex-husband, arranges for reporter Jimmy Stewart to cover the ceremony for a disreputable tabloid.

For a good scare, try “The Legend of Hell House” released in 1973. Roddy McDowell stars as a psychic convinced to return to the haunted mansion that he barely escaped from a decade earlier. Or pay another visit to two true horror classics, “Poltergeist” and “The Exorcist”.

You may have never even heard of “55 Days at Peking” or “The Gods Must Be Crazy”. The first movie is about the siege in 1900 of all the foreign embassies in the capital of China by the Boxers. Among the stars are David Niven, Charlton Heston, and Ava Gardner. The second movie tells the story of a bottle that is thrown out of a plane and found by Bushmen. They consider it a token dropped by their gods. Unfortunately, it completely disrupts their peaceful society, and one man is designated to take it to the end of the earth. He encounters some hilarious offbeat characters along the way.

Mystery buffs might prefer films like “Death on the Nile”, “Rebecca”, “Witness for the Prosecution”, or “Murder on the Orient Express”. Or is you are in the mood for a screwball comedy, you might like “Bringing up Baby”, starring Cary Grant, Hope and Crosby in “Road to Utopia” or “Hold That Ghost” with Abbott and Costello.

Other films offered for your consideration include “Marty”, “Damn the Defiant!”, “Pork Chop Hill”, “Ice Station Zebra” and “Command Decision”. There are, of course, several thousand more that are every bit as good.
