I was given a list of movies to choose from; but I don't watch 
movies
unless I have to or I'm with a group of people who want to watch 
one.
Movies seem boring to me for some reason.  I found a site and 
they have
most of the movies.  The site is www.wgbh.org. ...  Attached is 
the list
of movies and the ones with stars next to them is the ones wgbh 
has.
What movie do you guys think I should do? I was thinking Aladdin, 
Cars
(I kind of know that movie), or Toy Story.

 Insofar as I am aware, NLS does not carry described videos (the 
term "video
 description" is trademarked).  But I'd want to use my own reader 
anyway in
 that you don't know how well the video is being described if you 
just
 acquire it nor do you know whether you'll hear about the movie 
elements in
 which you are interested.

 Hi ,

 I am doing a project for an English assignment and my teacher 
wants us
 to watch a movie and analyze it.  (Pick out the different 
archetypes
 such as hero; clown; wise old man; and etc.)

 I found a link about descriptive videos.

 https://nfb.org/images/nfb/publications/fr/fr31/4/fr310412.htm

 Where can I find descriptive videos? Does the National Library 
Service
 (NLS) carry them?

 Thanks,
 Winona
