New Web Site, Best Movies By Farr.com, Delivers Over 1300 Great Film Recommendations

New York, NY (PRWEB) May 13, 2007 -- When choosing movies to watch in this increasingly on-demand world, why settle only for "what's out", when just by broadening your horizons a little, you can experience a superb film every time?

With a bewildering array of DVDs to choose from (70,000 titles and growing), and a flood of "bigger, louder, faster" titles in release, it's harder than ever to find timeless movies that reward head and heart--especially with the dubious, all-thumbs assessments of mainstream critics, many of whom function as blurb factories for Hollywood's mighty marketing machine. John Farr, a well-known film columnist, speaker, and advocate of quality film, wants the public to see more great movies, more often, and it is this enthusiastic and uncompromising personal mission that led him to create his newly launched Web site, http://www.BestMoviesByFarr.com.

Guiding users through more than 1300 choices in his expansive home library, all searchable by actor, time period, genre, actor/director, country, or mood, Farr's site is the holy grail for lovers of indispensable film. Providing quick summaries of each selection, along with context, background, and a short statement on what makes each film great, BestMoviesByFarr.com filters the gems from the junk, and lets you buy or rent every title listed. Picking only movies that embody the highest qualities of storytelling, John helps other film enthusiasts make informed choices that leave them fulfilled emotionally and intellectually. More importantly, John opens the door to great films yet to be discovered by the mass film-viewing audience.

The site combines conversational clarity with exceptional functionality and ease of use. Want to find an outstanding movie starring Marcello Mastroianni, or one directed by John Ford? No problem. Enter the name in a search field, and you'll find examples of only their most exceptional work, which you can buy, rent, or just read about. Farr's approach is to go beyond the obvious in celebrating outstanding films, applauding the best aspects of our present film culture without losing the value and perspective of movies from simpler times, when the language and subtleties of human nature most often played out in slower, saner ways.

Refreshed every week, BestMoviesbyFarr.com includes a number of tabbed features: New to DVD (to keep up with the quick pace of releases), Cornerstone Titles (a helpful guide to the all-time greats), Pick of the Day and Theme of the Week (bundled under rubrics like Animal Movies, Voyage to Italy, etc.), and Movie Nights (multiple sure-fire picks for group gatherings and home entertaining). John, whose own blog, FarronFilm.com, links to the home page of BestMoviesbyFarr with interviews, newspaper columns, and movie chat, also provides a tool for users to add comments and offer feedback on the site, as well as what they've seen and loved. Finally, for anyone wanting to start a DVD collection of their own, Farr has a nifty interface for curating a first-rate archive.

This summer, the newly launched Best Movies by Farr Web site will further up the ante, providing movie lovers with more movie recommendations, as well as video clips, podcasting downloads, audio commentary, and blogging opportunities with John. As before, BestMoviesByFarr.com and its linked bog site, http://www.FarronFilm.com, will enable film lovers everywhere to buy or rent the carefully selected movies that John recommends.

In a world overwhelmed by media noise and empty, big-budget pyrotechnics, such considered taste-making is truly a godsend.
