My wife and I use Netflix. Mighty hard to find a movie worth ordering. Most of it is drivel.

It's not that hard to find something if you enjoy older movies. Netflix is far superior to the local Blockbuster for classic films. Try finding films like "How Green Was My Valley" or "The Long Grey Line" locally.

Back during the peak of the video rental business, those titles were on the shelves - but not now.

Blockbuster changed their business model to stocking 50 copies of the latest Hollywood hype instead of having perennial films that people watch year in and year out.

Those 50 copies are bought at a reduced (negotiated) price and then sold off “used” after a set period of time.

How Green Was My Valley - a masterpiece. Incredibly moving.
