The Walden Library does not have a collection of theatrical films.

There are several places you can go to access movies:

• Your local library: many have collections of DVDs available for checkout.
• Netflix: this requires a subscription, and some movies are available only as DVD rentals.
• Amazon: their Instant Video option allows rental of some movies, while others are available for purchase.

You can also try to locate versions that have been posted online. These versions may or may not comply with U.S. copyright law. To locate a movie, it's best to search Google or Yahoo for the movie title and the word "streaming."
