    Default Movies You Never Tire Of Watching

    As I'm sitting here watching Forrest Gump for the umpteenth time, I started thinking about all the movies that compel me to stop and watch, no matter how many times I've seen them. Mine are:

    Auntie Mame
    Willy Wonka & The Chocolate Factory
    Love Actually
    Forrest Gump
    Pillow Talk
    Lover Come Back
    That Touch Of Mink
    Kill Bill Vol.1
    Fast Times At Ridgemont High

    I'm sure there are others I'm forgetting. How about you ?

    Great topic!

    Sometimes I find myself rewatching a movie that I've seen a gazillion times and DON'T want to watch, but can't seem to pull myself away. But here are some good ones.

    Dirty Dancing
    Steel Magnolias
    Fried Green Tomatoes

    And I dream I'm on vacation 'Cause I like the way that sounds,
    It's a perfect occupation for me.

    Troub reminded me of Sideways. Every time it's on TV we watch it. In fact, I'm just remembering that we bought it several years ago!

    Some of mine are:

    The Princess Bride
    Dragonheart (Sean Connery's voice could stop me anytime, anywhere)
    Love, Actually (Alan Rickman, Colin Firth and Liam Neeson in one movie - total yumminess - and Bill Nighy's festering turd of a record !)
    Notting Hill - the scene set to "She"

    That's a thread in itself.
    'Are you guilty of having a scene in a film permanently 'marked'?' And don't anyone even think of saying because none of us will believe you.

    I'm not one to grab on to a movie and start watching in the middle, so I rarely just sit down and start in watching one if it's already started. If I can catch it just starting, then I will, but it's really hard for me to take the time.

    A few off the top of my head:

    Romeo and Juliet-the one from the 70's with Olivia Hussey
    The Outlaw Josey Wales
    Sleepless in Seattle
    Legends of the Fall
    Dances With Wolves
    Forrest Gump

    I just watched A Star Is Born a couple weeks ago.
