Films you've seen over and over again But still try to make a point of watching when they're on tv

[Mad Eyed Screamer]

The Color Purple. I could watch it forever. I don't know why I love it so much.

I read the book first - very powerful and then watched the film. Hugely disappointing. Speilberg Hollywood-ised all the risque topics the book raised.

My favourite film of all time by a country mile, Thomas Crown affair, although I do have it on DVD.

Every year without fail just before Christmas we watch "It's a Wonderful Life" with James Stewart and Donna Reed and Lionel Barrymore, brilliant film.
Goodfellas and a bunch of other classics of course, also,
the big short
Ferris Bueller's day off
hunt for red october

Drives Mrs MB mad - The French Connection

 

[leithblue]

Escape To Victory, dreadful film but always stop channel surfing if I stumble across it. It’s mostly to annoy my wife these days anyway.

Is it controversial to think the Nazi kit at the end is quite natty, if you take off the swastika obviously?

Duel. The first ever Spielberg movie with Dennis Weaver and a murderous truck driver you never see. I must have watched it dozens of times.

No need to wait for TV to show it, it was available on YouTube last time I looked about a month ago.

I'll read the book so. Nice one.
