Seven Good Suggestions For An Awesome Movie To Watch Today

By Julie Rocha

Diverse genres influence people in different ways of course. There are men and women both who love the chick-flicks and there are those that would never watch one. Some love horror movies and some despise them but the wonderful thing about the movie industry is that there is a little for everybody. Some good information about some of the greatest films that you may have never heard of is right here. Enjoy this list of movies that are "oldies but goodies". Consider that you can get them downloaded directly to your own computer in the comfort of your own dwelling.

Lilies of the Field from 1963 is a "small" film that made tremendous, triumphing Poitier an Oscar as handyman who helps to build a chapel for Skala and German-talking nuns. Cast includes Sidney Poitier, Lilia Skala, Lisa Mann, Isa Crino, and Stanley Adams.

Black like Me hit the screen in 1964. Strong drama based on real history of a journalist who took drugs that permitted him to pass for black so he might go through racial prejudice first hand. Some aspects of presentation are outdated, although subjects are still significant. Cast includes James Whitmore, Roscoe Lee Browne, Lenka Petersen, Sorrell Booke, Will Geer, Al Freeman, and Raymond Jacques.

Sugar Town - Entertaining variety of LA life characterizing a handful of characters whose lives merge - a musician would-be who will do anything to get ahead, an uptight lone woman who allures the unsuitable men like a magnet, and a band made up of cleaned-up '80s rock megastars, to name a few. Made on a shoestring, although sharp and well recognized; superb cast contains a variety of real life musicians. Cast includes Ally Sheedy, Rosanna Arquette, John Taylor, Jade Gordon, Michael Des Barres, Lucinda Jenney, and Martin Kemp.

Richard's Things, widow Ullmann is seduced by her late spouse's lady friend. Screenplay by Frederic Raphael based on his novel. Cast includes Liv Ullmann, Amanda Redman, Tim Smith, Elizabeth Spriggs, and David Markha.

Each Dawn I Die from 1939. Journalist Cagney is framed, and sent to the penitentiary where he meets a tough inmate, Raft. There is excellent acting all around. Cagney hits a white-hot peak with his role, however the last half of film gets to be outrageously far-fetched. Music score by Max Steiner. Cast includes James Cagney, George Raft, George Bancroft, Jane Bryan, Maxie Rosenbloom, Stanley Ridges, Louis Jean Heydt, Abner Biberman, John Wray, Victor Jory, and Thurston Chamber.

The Sinister Urge from 1960. Dedicated cops Duncan and Moore set out to bash the "smut film racket," which is run by a flashy blonde. Illustrates with total confidence how pictures of overweight ladies clad in just their underwear can be a main cause of adolescent wrongdoing. Cast includes Kenne Duncan, Duke Moore, Carl Anthony, Jean Fontaine, Dino Fantini, and Jeanne Willardson.

No Man of Her Own came out in 1950. Ostentatious production based on Cornell Woolrich storyline of Helen Ferguson (Stanwyck) assuming another's identity and becoming part of a fmaily. Later in the movie she is being blackmailed by her ex-boyfriend. Cast includes Barbara Stanwyck, John Lund, Jane Cowl, Phyllis Thaxter, and Richard Denning.
