GreenCine | main member - Video-On-Demand, Buy and Rent DVDs

Description

When most people think online DVD rental, they think NetFlix. I think Green Cine. GC is like NexFlix for people who call movies FILM and who, when we go to "see a movie" might actually say "let's go to the cinema". We go to film festivals. We like movies that are in black and white. Movies with subtitles. Movies that the average Joe Blow doesn't know exists and wouldn't even if he or she did. My wife hates anything that was made before last year, has subtitles, is black and white, has Asian women in it (let's not go in that shall we?) or does not have a cast member from Saturday Night Live as the star. Green Cine has tons of films that are all those things (except the SNL bit). If you are into world cinema, classic films, art film, movies with real characters and storylines that are not just mindless fluff, or anything that isn't paint by numbers Hollyweird fodder, you need to check out Green Cine. One word of caution however, they are based in San Francisco and that is their only distribution center as of this writing. No problems for those who are say a single mail day away, but I'm in New York. Three days three, one day for processing, and three days for a new DVD to come my way makes it tough to get your money worth - but I'm trying.
