Based on this list, I went searching and found a lot of those are available to rent, but so far the only free ones I could find are King of the Mountain on Tubi and Running On Empty (Fast Lane Fever) is on YouTube.

King ot Mountain was a total cheese fest but had good race scenes. Starting up the other right now.

If anyone happens to find links to any of other ones, pass it along please.

You can find them streaming. #10, for instance is here (watch the pop-ups). Wanna finish the vid before I go searching for the rest, tho. Thanks!

Btw, Two-Lane Blacktop is hardly forgotten. It's well known among movie buffs.
The Criterion Collection added it in 2007. Decent streamer.

The Handmaiden, directed by the legendary Park Chan-wook, is another absolute slam dunk for him and an enthralling romantic drama with many twists and turns. The two and a half hour runtime absolutely flew by for me, every scene is so beautifully shot and consistently engaging, the plot moves along quickly while still leaving time for us to really get into our protagonists' shoes. Loved every second of it, check it out people

Ah, thanks again. Really wanting to check out James' thespian skills, but then again I might have seen this a long time ago and just didn't realize it.

Yes it's a great film. Somehow it manages to pull off being over the top with flair

Ok, I got about 55 minutes into this and shut it off to save the rest of it for another time. Just a bit slow and really, REALLY bad acting. Sgt Hulka (Warren Oates) saves a few of the scenes and Dennis Beach Boy Wilson has a few moments. Even Harry Deans small part seemed a bit odd, but man... it's a good thing Taylor had something else to fall back on. lol Really reminiscent of the way movies were back then though. Just wasn't in the mood for it, but I'll probably finish it up this weekend when we get another snow storm.

I went back to the Cartel stuff and watched this instead:

Well, yeah, the car races are not the centerpiece. Might have warned you. Forgot! As I recall there really isn't much acting, either. Mostly an aimless/insecure group of 20 somethings staving off adulthood. Has its moments.

Holiday (1938, George Cukor)
Another Katherine Hepburn-Cary Grant pairing. Cannot sit through Bringing Up Baby and The Philadelphia Story is tolerable, mostly because of Jimmy Stuart. This one is about Grant deciding not to marry a dull heiress to billions of ducats in favor of the excitement of independence - and the heiress' sister, Kate Hepburn. Funny in parts.
