Hello, Movies

Lots of American websites won't let you access them from other countries. Hola.org is one of several sites that lets you bypass these restrictions. I wanted to make sure I could watch Netflix from down here, so I downloaded it.

Then one day I logged onto Netflix without going through Hola. It turns out depending on where you are in the world, Netflix has a different selection of streaming movies. Brazil's library is far superior to the US's. Titles include the Godfather Trilogy, Clockwork Orange, City of God, both Kill Bills, Casino, Catch Me If You Can, 40-Year-Old Virgin and on and on.

Hola works inside the US, too. So, why just watch the American version of Netflix?

1. Go to Hola.org.
2. Download (it only works on some browsers like Chrome).
3. Access Netflix from the country of your choosing.

The only difference is you won't be able to turn off subtitles for some movies. I say a small price to pay.
