   Okay so I have watched quite a few movies again and again and again...I have watched maybe 10 movies more than 5 times.
   
   What about you guys? How many movies have you watched more than let's say 5 times? You don't have to name them if yuo don't want to or how many times you have watched them...only if you want to though
   
   
   I have watched Take the Lead, Must Love Dogs, Tamara, Newsies, 27 Dresses, Princess Diaries and Princess Diaries 2 more than 5 times just to name a few...watching Must Love Dogs as we speak.
   
   Your turn!

         It is interesting, (at least to me) that I am attracted to movie situations that have no real-life alluring counterpart.  I love boxing movies for instance, Cinderella Man, Million Dollar Baby, but hate boxing.

       I can't say that I would watch that one again.  Not because it wasn't good,  but movies like that, that address such heavy topics, are hard to sit through more than once (for me at least).  I did think it was good...doesn't make me want to run down the aisle and get married though... More than anything, I thought it was a subtle commentary on how mental illness affects relationships.  BTW - I hear the book is amazing...it's on my list.

    Sneak the top of your list brings this to mind: 
    
    My dad loves Clint Eastwood movies and James Bond movies.  Growning up, my mother did not appreciate these.  We had only one TV in the house.  He would always say "But this is the one I haven't seen before."  Of course she would grudgingly relent and find something else to do.  Some of these movies that he'd never seen before, I watched with him several times over the years. 
    
    My sister and step brother live with me.  On occasion, we evoke Frank at our house and say "But this is the one I've never seen before!"

    The best line in a movie was said by Angela Lansbury "Ray why dont you play a game of solitaire"-there was an air of menace about it but absolutely brilliant.
                              What a pity theres no "Rays" about to have a quiet word with some of these wasters running these unreal"reality" shows-the high trousered type.
                                             Some people have said that Sinatra wasnt a good actor-but he acted in many good films,Suddenly was another example of that genre-the man with the golden arm another example.
