movies you watch over and over
So I was channel surfing the other night when I saw Braveheart was on again.
Just like before I stopped changing the channels and watched the rest of the movie. this got me thinking of the movies I will watch again and again.
In no particular order
Braveheart
Fight club "Now a question of etiquette; as I pass, do I give you the ass or the crotch...?"
The Matrix, but only the first one
Kill Bill, again only the first one

Jaws seems to be on one channel or another once a week, and it's usually the best thing on, so....I guess I've seen it about 400 times.
...having nothing in them of the feelings or principles of '76, now look to a single and splendid government of an aristocracy, founded on banking institutions and moneyed incorporations under the guise and cloak of their favored branches of manufactures, commerce and navigation, riding and ruling over the plundered ploughman and beggared yeomanry. -- TJ

My go-to movies are:
Hitchcock's "Rope",
Forman's "Amadeus",
Girard's "The Red Violin",
Sturges' "The Palm Beach Story"
It's not a movie.
