Letterboxd is launching its own film rental service that will allow members to watch their favorite films, especially the ones not being offered on streaming services.
This is what their post says "
At Letterboxd, our biggest mission is film discovery—but discovery is only half the battle. It’s frustrating to add a movie to your watchlist and then realize you can’t actually watch it! That’s why we’re trying something new and opening the doors to the Letterboxd Video Store, our own curated rental spot."
This is an opportunity to avoid high subscription costs and simply watch the film you want, and for fans of classic films, I think this will be the ideal video store especially when looking for season-themed classics. Availability and pricing might change depending on the member's location, of course, but I think most underrated 80s and 90s classics will now be available.
