Storytelling is at the heart of Scarecrow Video. For thousands of years, stories have been the way we learn about our collective past, interpret our present, and dream about our future; and they have the power to transcend boundaries real and imagined. For over 100 years, film has been an essential medium for portraying the human experience. Scarecrow is devoted to gathering and sharing as many of these cinematic stories as possible. Their collection of over 131,000 unique titles (over three times the number of titles available through Netflix, Amazon, and Hulu, combined) is housed in their Seattle location, and is unparalleled in its scope and accessibility. -- internetarchive
