| | | Help me netflix it.
We broke down and got Netflix.
1) What should I queue?
2) How do people get what's on their computer to show up on their TV?
What kind of cords, etc, do I need?
We are expecting a long hibernation this winter, so we want to have some good movies to accompany it.
We loved renting TV series when we did Blockbuster online a few years ago--any recommendations?
Any Jane Austen movie recommendations?
Comedies, etc.
Thanks!!

Cords and cables all depend on your PC/TV. Whatcha got?

I recommend you queue Chaplin films:
City Lights
The Kid
The Great Dictator
The Circus
Modern Times
You could also try some of Werner Herzog's documentaries, if you wanna try some artsy stuff:
The White Diamond
Wheel of Time
Encounters at the End of the World
Land of Silence and Darkness
You might also try these films:
Brief Encounter
Spoorloos (The Vanishing) (a Dutch film, very suspenseful and possibly scary, though no gore, language, etc.)
Nights of Cabiria (deals with a prostitute but no offensive material in the film, so far as I can remember)

I've started a quest (of sorts) to watch the AFI Top 100 films (from the 1998 list). I've already seen Casablanca, Citizen Kane and the Godfather.

TV is old, not HD. It has the three color prong connector holes.
Obviously, this language is not technical and shows my cluelessness : )
