Netflix in Brazil?


Just a quick post that I thought I'd share with all of the expats in Brazil (or the wannabes :) that are big Netflix fans....the company is planning, according to the article at engadge.com, take "instant streaming to Latin America, global domination plan on track". And now while I have never been a customer of Netflix, everyone I know is - and loves it - and I've considered it many times. Instead, I go to the movies a lot and rent from RedBox (remember I mentioned how Redbox would be one of 10 things I'd miss from not living in the U.S. anymore?). However, I think I'd become a Netflix user when it's eventually introduced in Brazil (which is the plan). The article states that it is unknown at this point when service would begin in Latin America, and how much it'll cost, but streaming will soon occur below (and above because we're talking about Mexico, the Caribbean, and the northern region of South America, too) the equator.  Something to look forward to, don't you think?

Wordless Wednesday: Foreign films

(United Kingdom)

(Brazil)

(Spain)

(Colombia)
I love foreign films. Much more than American, Hollywood movies. I've seen so many amazing foreign films over the years that it's hard not to want to post the covers of them all, assuming of course that I could remember the titles, which I can't unfortunately. Therefore, I present a few of my favorites (I own them all besides the third one which funny enough is my favorite). If you haven't seen any of these films then you need to go out and rent them now. Hope you enjoy them as much as I have. By the way, I recommend ANY movie by the famous Spanish filmmaker Pedro Almodovar.
