Hey everyone,
In honor of Black History Month, we’ve added a new Bigscreen Movie category called Black Cinema with titles such as Night Catches Us, The Long Walk Home, St. Louis Superman, The Pruitt-Igoe Myth, and more to commemorate the accomplishments of African Americans in every area of endeavor throughout our history.
These are ad-supported free movies on Pluto.tv, and can be watched on-demand at any time in any of our environments including our new Drive-In Movie Theater!
Check out 13 more amazing films in the Free to Watch with Ads category such as The King’s Speech, Memento, and more.
We’re also hosting a live event tonight on Monday, February 1st at 7PM PT/10PM ET, broadcasting Selma, Ava DuVernay’s critically acclaimed film. This is a live, social experience, offering – a unique way for VR users to watch a thought-provoking film with people around the country.
Nominated for Best Picture at the Academy Awards in 2014, Selma is the story of how Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. led a three month march from Selma to Montgomery, Alabama in 1965, fighting for equal voting rights for all Black Americans.
Can't make it to the live event? We'll have more Selma events scheduled throughout the month. You are also able to rent Selma on-demand at any time at https://bigscreenvr.com/movies/catalog for $3.99 in the US/$4.99 in Canada.
