I watch DVDs on my computer, which is not connected to the Internet. I get free Internet access at the library, where I can download old public domain movies to watch at home. I haven't had a phone for a couple of weeks since the analog network shut down. I'm sure the whole world except EvC thinks I'm dead. I might go shopping for a new phone this afternoon.

Can you recommend a title or two? My favorite public domain stuff is the Dave Fleischer stuff.
I used to have some Betty Boop cartoons on a flash drive but I lost it. I can always get them again at Internet Archive.
One surprisingly good movie is Suddenly, starring Sterling Hayden and Frank Sinatra - though some critics don't like it. Another is Detour.
Some of my favorites are British comedies starring Arthur Askey and Will Hay.
