Watch Classic Movies Online In The Comfort Of Home

By Celia Hall


People love to watch classic movies online. The films of the past were much more creative and stylish than the cinema that we are given in today's society. The shows from the past were more interested in plot lines and character development which made them very unique in every way possible. If you go to the theater in this day and age you will be subjected to more sex and violence that can influence young people in a very negative way.

There was no shortage of talented actors in those days and every film would usually have a very popular star in the credits. Clark Gable, Bette Davis, Spencer Tracy and Miss Joan Crawford were the best and brightest of those days. America was proud to have them as representatives for the arts. Their skills were extraordinary and none of the actors in 2012 can match them.

Great films were also on hand if you were to go to any movie house. "The Great Lie", "Gone With The Wind", "To Kill A Mockingbird", "The African Queen", "Whatever Happened To Baby Jane", "Gigi" and "Mildred Pierce" were all well written stories that can now be seen on your computer.

Scarlett O'Hara was a very popular character when "Gone With The Wind" came onto screens in 1939. The feature tells the story about the American Civil war and the woman who lived through it. She was the center of everyone's attention and other women hated her. At the end this film shows that anyone can have the same type of life as Scarlett.

A screen legend like Bette Davis made "The Great Lie" one great story. Be sure to view this feature first since it tells such a terrific story. In the film there are two women who share a relationship with one handsome man. In the end one woman will stand tall while the other will admit defeat and leave.

If terror is what you are looking for then "Whatever Happened To Baby Jane" may be a great feature to watch. This time around Bette Davis stars in a very violent role that will leave the viewers shocked. Joan Crawford plays her helpless sister who lives in constant fear.

If you love Leslie Caron and the very handsome Louis Jourdan then you will indeed love "Gigi". This is the story about a young girl who grows up before a man's very eyes. This is a musical but many viewers ignore this fact since the story is so great. Louis Jourdan proves that he not only has looks but a great singing voice as well.

"Mildred Pierce" is one film that you really want to add to your downloads. People who watch classic movies online have often marveled at this story. This tale puts a new spin on mother and daughter relationships. When the lead character becomes a success in her business she meets a man who ruins her life. Her daughter also turns into her worst nightmare as she tries to steal her husband. People will cheer at the end of this story.
