Why these films are free
In the United States, a film's copyright eventually runs out. Every film released in 1930 or earlier is now in the public domain, and each January 1 another year joins them. Some later films are public domain too, because their copyright was never properly secured or renewed.
Public domain means anyone can watch, share or download these films for free, and that's exactly what TH Trending lets you do. Every film here streams from the Internet Archive, a nonprofit digital library, with nothing to sign up for.
Want more? The Free page in the app adds every film on the Internet Archive that's old enough to be in the public domain, and the movies and shows streaming free with ads where you live.
