A few months ago, looking to show a film in class, I realized that the public library didn't have a dvd version, nor could I find it even at the (soon to be extinct) video store, so I was absolutely forced to come into the 19th century and sign up for the ubiquitous Netflix.
Forced!
Anything for my students.
I don't even own a dvd player at home, just my little laptop.

Anyway here are the films I've seen from them thus far, my "queue", as it were. The best thing about Netflix, if you ask me, is their use of this word.
But anyway can you identify them? (Yeah, I know, too easy, but play along. What else do you have to do?)

Yeah, not nearly as sexy as this makes it look, very slooooooooow....but very beautifully filmed. I've already forgotten half of the plot again already.

Always a crowd pleaser. Every time I watch it, I like this version less, however.

Hmmm....had hoped this would be better, but at least I got to look at the lovely Mr. Fiennes for a few hours.

I watched this twice, but it needs to be re watched a few more times, I think. What can I say, I'm kinda slow. Still, it's stayed with me since I've seen it. I especially loved this scene.

Prompted by Frontier Psychiatrist I just watched this last night. Not nearly as campy as it looks. But then maybe I just have a very high threshold for camp.
Could be.
The commentary was also delightful. I've just put it in the mail a few hours ago.

And this is what I've just put on my queue (Season 1 is the only one yet available).
And to my frustration it says: "Very Long Wait"
Argh.
But I completely understand.
