Downloading the URL http://images.apple.com/movies/lionsgate/high_tension/high_tension-tlr_480.mov gives me a file that's a whopping 264 bytes. This points to the streamed content, so downlading it doesn't make the content available for offline play. Using the original hint downloads the stream and does make it available for offline viewing.

Here is some rough code to extract the url and download the real movie from the 264 byte file. It is rough, very little error checking and it could have problems i have not thought of. but it does work for the link in the parrent.
Just copy the url to the clip board and run this applescript, it should take care of the rest. ---
