Looking for a good movie tonight? How do you know it will be a good movie? Is it a dud or sleeper? How about that actor you saw in a recent film? Do you want to know more about them, or how much it grossed at the box office? If so, then today’s Family First Site is one that you will truly enjoy.

Called the Internet Movie Database, it is an online resource for films. But not just your new releases or current showings. It has reference material stretching all the way back to 1892, when it lists a total of four films. Once you have located that film, there is a wealth of information on it, more than you could ever want to know. It gives a plot summary, a full plot, a Maltin summary, cast and crew credits. It lists foreign films, as well as television shows and movies. The number of films listed is incredible, starting with the previously mentioned four in 1892 to a total of 4699 in the 1998 database.

So if you are looking for information on just about any film, it can be found here. Remember this site the next time you’re in a hot game of Trivial Pursuit. It can come in handy.

    This has got to be one of the best sites online. Just finished watching a movie, which you don't know the name, and you want to know the name of the hunky co-star? If you know the name of the star, you can look her up, see all the movies she's in which she's been and see which one's plot matches the movie you just watched. From there, you can find the name of that hunky co-star. AND, from there you can find out what else in which he's been. It also works for television! I've used IMdB for years without having to add it to my bookmarks. IMdB.com what could be easier?
