Welcome to A2K and the film forum, paris -- "The Eagle Has Landed" can almost prompt me to see "Where Eagle's Dare" once again. I have the main theme on DVD of WED 'cause it's a haunting and very jaunty march theme. I did like "Love Actually" and although I enjoyed "Pirates" on the big screen I don't know if I'm anxious to see it again. Very interesting list.

Some films get better time after time. Shaun of the dead is one such film, it's good the first time but the second and third time's you notice more and more very clever lines and shots. Needless to say it's a British film!

Watched "Boyz" the other night. Hadn't seen it in a decade at least.
"West Side Story" is on TCM right now.
It's ironic that one can watch "Groundhog Day" again and again and again.
I'm watching West Side Story right now, too, EOE. I just recorded Flower Drum Song and My Fair Lady to DVD earlier. I never tire of watching the musicals (most of them) again.
I think I must be one of the few people who just didn't care for Groundhog Day. I usually don't mention movies I don't like, because everyone's tastes are different and likes a movie for personal reasons,and I most always find something about a movie that I like, but that movie I just didn't care for. - And maybe, it's Bill Murray on the large screen. - I was so disappointed in the Razor's Edge remake.
Very hard question - too hard to remember. Off the top of my head:
Princess Bride
Life of Brian
Long good Friday
Year my Voice Broke
Gallipoli
Princess Mononoko
Spirited Away
Seventh Seal
Seven Samurai
Wonder World
Beautiful People
Secrets and Lies
Mad Max 1x2

So many great films I'd love to own. Have to keep adding to this list.
I can watch again and again any movie that deals with mechanical destruction!
(derailments and collisions)
(cranes falling from buildings)
Etc...
Movies I can watch again
Empire Records... gotta love Rory Cochrane... lol
Pirates of the Caribbean
I must admit that I stop and watch "Pirates" every time I run across it while flipping. One of the movie channels runs it damn near daily. We have the dvd even but still, I gotta watch Depp do his thing. What a performance!
midnight in the Garden of Good and Evil. Watched it again tonight. It needs many month of rest, then it s worth seeing again.
The critics unfairly dispensed with "Garden" as average Eastwood but even knowing it's not very faithful to the true story, I can't help being drawn in by the character vignettes and the atmosphere. When the movie was released, A & E ran a documentary on the true story. There were three trials condensed to one in the movie.
And that wonderful soundtrack!
Loved the book. Didn't care for the movie at all except Mr. Spacey's performance.
I thought Eastwood captured the atmosphere but much of the intrigue and character depth of the book were lost. But such is nearly any adaptation of any book when it's got to come in at 2 hours on the screen. Jackson gave "The Lord of the Rings" over ten hours (on the extended versions) and still missed much of the books. Still, watching the film brings back the book's fascinating tale, albeit truncated for film.
I didn't care for the expansion of the Lady Chablis character. It was a cheap move, IMO.
A couple of my husband's relatives were in the movie as extras.
