A new tab will open and a basic security check like a captcha will be performed. After completing the check, close that page and return here.
Refresh this page. Wait 30 secs. The movie should load and you can just hit play.

The movie should now start playing in a new tab of your browser or begin downloading to your device. This option has the minor disadvantage that English-language movies with optional subtitles in the movie player will not include these subs with this method.
The new system here has been designed keeping in mind even people with low internet speeds sub-8mbps. Even if you have a really bad connection, you should still be able to watch the movie without any issues if you:
Start the movie. Pause it. Wait for 30-45 seconds. Start playing again.
This 'Can't Watch' method really only works if it's your specific device/browser that's interfering with the player. There is no real advantage of speed here. Or if there is a temp network glitch or read lag from the server disk.
If you're still having problems, try using 'Incognito mode' in your browser. On iPhones, especially older ones, use Chrome instead of Safari. Might help.
IMPORTANT: Please make sure that the newly opened tab is not an ad popup asking you to download some software or whatever. Close any such popups and don't download any software - those are ads. Nothing is needed to be done by you other than to complete the security check which is often automated.

Plot – Spoilers:
Paul Sheldon is a writer who feels he’s been a sellout all his literary life, but now’s the time to mend his ways. So he’s been cooped up in his favorite writing lodge and has finished his latest work that he believes will showcase his true artistic gifts.
Driving back home, Paul crashes and is sure to die in the snow when Anne Wilkes pulls him out of the turtled car, hoists him onto her back and carries him to her place, where she tends to him over the next few weeks. Annie is a former nurse, but more importantly, Paul’s self-proclaimed No. 1 Fan. She’s also been stalking him and sees his helpless bedridden self now as an opportunity to wheedle her way into his writing world.
Annie is terribly disappointed with Paul’s last book where her favorite character was killed off and insists that he fix this in his next novel, to be written under her stern watch. Or he’ll be left to die there, with the world unaware of his whereabouts.
As a writer, Paul already has a certain control over prose, but this is one situation where he really has to learn to choose his words carefully when dealing with Annie who is a master at casually insinuating the potential violence that looms for him.
In a movie where it’s mostly about two people interacting, the two leads, Kathy Bates and James Caan, make sure this is one of the better film adaptations of a Stephen King novel.



A classic. 5 stars of course. Kathy Bates is a great actress and is brilliant in this one. One of Bate’s best performances is in a movie called “Delores Claiborne” (1995). “Hey Joe, I ain’t tired anymore.”
4stars???
Esse filme e digno de uma nota 10 o diretor Rob Reiner de stand by me 1986 também tem o mérito ,na mão de outro diretor poderia ter sido uma bomba esse e com certeza um dos melhores livros do Stephen king adaptado pro cinema,📳👍✝️
Any other special requirements ? how about a pair of writing slippers or a hand held tape recorder but if you want i will bring back the whole store for ya. lol
Next time I deposit a check, I’m definitely gonna say, “Here’s one big bastard of check”.
Brilliant, but the ending seemed rushed. We should have seen the sheriffs wife getting all distraught, wondering where her husband was, because she didn’t know where he had gone, but she goes to see the guy at the book shop, and in a panic realises where he’s gone and gets driven their at speed by a deputy… and enters the house of horror…. then that nice closing scene with Lauren Bacall and the trolly!
I guess all writers can’t be as good as me!
Caught this on cable the other day. Kathy Bates is amazing as always!
this is the best movie i’ve seen on this fucking website
Watching this for probably the tenth time cause he died this weekend, and he has been a part of movies my whole life
It’s a classic.. and pretty ahead of its time…. Unlike say Cape Fear which thought it was brooding and menacing.. it was totally lame compared to Bates and Caans performance in this. Much better than the novel too which is unique.
Straddled both arenas in the time of release for being both mainstream AND a tad underground…
Well played.
For proper cinema fans
Nice movie with an interesting and unusual plot, the main actress was A class
Guess you could say Annie was put out of her Misery.
finally something in english to watch, about fucking time
you could say Paul doesnt have a leg to stand on
The hobbling scene is fantastic. You expect to not see it and then, boom!
Interesting movie actually, especially like how the facial expression of the nurse was portrayed by the actress.
