More time to stay inside and watch films once! The Grand Illusion and The Life and Death of Col. Blimp about 30 times each. The Archers can go a long way. Black Narcissus many many times.

No it can't, because everytime you go somewhere it is different. The film is on an exact playback. Then again I do note that many people don't notice details on the first run through that i already haven't missed. Also i was never one of those kids that would re-read favourate books, and couldn't re-watch films because we didn't even have a video player. Nevertheless I can understand why you would want to do it from the, missing things angle, up to the familiar armchair you want to rest your brain in reason. Don't fret, we is just differnent ;-] In the case of the swimming pool, I think you will find an experience many levels above anything that a film, even on the first run through could deliver.

Not to mention in the case of the swimming pool, I think you will find an experience many levels above anything that a film, even on the first run through could deliver. You can be different with every visit. The Grand Canyon is going to be quite the same for instance. The weather can change. One can watch a film without the same attitude thoughts or perceptions. They can be analyzed on multiple levels. Someone mentioned Barry Lyndon, which can be easily enjoyed time after time as if a painting. I suppose one can look at a painting once and be over it. If not why do not? So yeah. Swimming pools are the fucking shit!

I think if i did have lots of art up in my house, it would be there for reason of both storage of something valuable, and as an expression of my personality to anyone coming for a visit.

If you enjoyed Rip Torn in that film, I highly recommend Norman Mailer's "Maidstone", in which Torn is clearly tripping in a mildly pornographic scene, and gets into a real fistfight with Mailer at the end, scaring his children.
