If you’re a lover of classic films, you know how difficult it can be to find some of your favorite titles. The farther back you go in time, the harder it gets to locate certain films of old, especially if they have never been commercially released or have entered the public domain. Though it sounds counterintuitive, often, movies that have entered the public domain are less readily available to the public. Not anymore, thanks to Loving the Classics.
A work is considered public domain property when the copyright expires, or if the copyright was never applied for. In most cases, this includes works published between the 1920’s and 1960’s. Even if you scour the aisles at your local video store, in most instances, classic public domain movies from these decades will not be available. In an effort to bring these works in to the hands of classic movie lovers, Loving the Classics created an online system that lets you obtain films that you are unlikely to find anywhere else!
Loving the Classics also strives to ensure that you get the best quality film prints as well. When you order movies from the site, they will come packaged inside hard, plastic cases with custom designed artwork. Depending on the title, you may get a DVD or a VHS tape. (It’s important to note that VHS tapes will only play in North American produced VCRs.)
The best part is, you can do all of your ordering online. Most video rental stores are going out of business, due to modern technology that allows online movie streaming, or due to video mail-in services that will ship titles straight to your doorstep. Loving the Classics will also ship titles you can’t find anywhere else straight to your doorstep, but unlike the service offered by other mail-in video rental companies, you won’t have to ship them back. These films are yours to keep. What’s more, Loving the Classics has many titles from just about every genre, many of which you won’t find anywhere else, online or off. That’s all the more reason to give this service a try. Get the classic films you love shipped straight to you within 7 business days and watch them over and over again.
