Withnail & I is one of the few films I could watch pretty much constantly, it's probably my most rewatched. One reason is actually that the dialogue is quite quiet and it can be hard to catch a lot of lines on the first viewing. I love that film so much.

 

Some films arguably demand multiple viewings if you're to have a clue what they're about. The Holy Mountain springs to mind off the top of my head. Fuck me, that film was spacey.

Rain Over Mountain is out now; 100% of Bandcamp sales are donated to the Motor Neurone Disease Association:

Coming To America

 

this is funny funny

Trading Places, the movie where Eddie Murphy... trades places with Dan Akroyd. At the end, the principal from The Breakfast Club gets raped by a gorilla. It is brilliant for serious. The two old tycoons also have a cameo in Coming to America.

Ahhh yes The Fog is another film I can't resist watching.

 

I went through a phase about 12 years ago of watching all those RD Niro/Scorsese/Godfather type movies which were great to watch at the time but they have zero replay for me. On second watch they just bored the pants off me, just a load of fat blokes sitting round talking to each other lol, their obviously brilliant films but great example of watched once is enough.

 

I do like the hunting scenes in The Deer Hunter, but again its a film which blew my mind when I watched it first, but has no replay value for me, except the mountain/deer hunt which is just epic.

Ahh fuck. How'd I forget the Godfather 1&2 & the Deer Hunter. I've watched the deer hunter multiple times. very uplifting movie...

Thanks user487363530. And user4873635301. Now 48736353001.

The Deer Hunter's probably my all time favourite - though it is a real effort to watch, especially the long drawn out wedding scenes, which I realise is absolutely necessary. I just can't think of another film that's moved me as much as that did... maybe American Beauty.

Deer Hunter is one of the greatest movies I've ever seen, but it is quite an effort and it's so, at least to me, emotionally draining that I'm not sure I could watch it again. Platoon is similar in that regard.

 

I like war movies but Vietnam war films are among my favorites. Apocalypse Now and Full Metal Jacket in particular. They capture the absurdity to war perfectly in different ways.

I've seen Deer Hunter mulitple times. Although I was kidding about it being uplifting. I did not like the score if I recall correctly. Other than that, a gritty take of the wars effects on the homefront.

Agreed. Deer Hunter is one of the greatest but its an emotional drain on me too. I can get to the point when De Niro returns home after the war and sits alone in his motel room with the lampshade, then I can't take anymore. I feel desolate and depressed and need to do something uplifting. Which I guess shows what genius the film is...

 

Apocalypse Now is my favorite film of all time. Because it's weird, trippy and the script/narrative is fucking insane (in a good way) and the cinematography is another level. Its not your usual war film, more a dream.

Another I missed off the list. The making of the film reflected the madness of Kurtz, so they say. I recommend 'Easy Riders, Raging Bulls' for a page turner of an insider Hollywood book during 60/70s.
