What movie do you COMPULSIVELY watch over and over again? I am asking that because for the past couple of months I have been compulsively watched Cinderella Man every time I can catch it on cable. So far I must have seen it about 30 times but who's keeping count? For some strange reason, I find myself drawn to this movie. I can't really explain it. My favorite scene is when James Braddock was fighting Corn Griffin but will watch the movie in its entirety or what ever part is left when I check the tube.
It's gotten so bad that I now have the Cinderella Man book which I am now reading. Also, I find myself watching boxing events on the tube which I rarely did before.
So what movie (if any) do YOU compulsively watch over and over and over again?

I love "1776"! I bought the video years ago, and we watch it several times a year.

I watch Tremors over and over too. My favorite scene is also the "YA PICKED THE WRONG GAL DARN REC ROOM, DIDN'T YA!"

"Sit down John, Sit down John, For G*d sake John, SIT DOWN
Someone open up a window....
NO TOO Many flies.
But it's hot as H*LL in PhilaDELphia!"
WAY back in high school, I had a history teacher who introduced us to the movie, and I've loved it ever since. I had to buy the DVD, because they stopped showing it on cable, as they used to around the 4th of July.

20 years ago I had an auto repair shop, and I had Monty Python's Holy Grail playing just about continuously except for when it was rewinding.
And the Ramones Rocket To Russia in the cassette deck.

We sing that at home *all* the time, substituting the name of the currently annoying child: "Sit down, Bill, sit down, Bill ..." My mother is from Philadelphia, so that makes it even funnier!
I first saw it in a college course on the American Revolution, and there was no such thing as DVD when I bought the VHS, at the time our local video outlet ditched it.

Pretty, but a marginal voice. Abigail Adams could really sing.

I know most of the dialogue from Midway.....my wife knows Strawberry 12 is the important PBY.
I'm beginning to get pretty good on the Longest Day.
The Band of Brothers series is getting pretty well imprinted as well. There is so much that even repeated watchings yields new stuff.
