Which old movies do you like watching again from time to time?

I have a few favorites. Even ones where you know the major plot twist but watch it again anyways?

 

Shawshank :thumbup:

Also GWH

For some or other reason the new Total Recal, watched it easily 10 times already.

There are actually many.

Lets get the obvious ones out the way. Titles by Quintin Taratino, David Fincher, Guy Ritchie and probably any and everything by Martin Scorsese. 

Perhaps titles we wish more people would see? Especially if they are at least a few years old

One of my favourite movies of all time. I didn't know who Danny Boyle was before this tiltle. It certainly put him on the map for me and many other. He hasn't really disappointed with the title that followed either. Slumdog Millionaire, The Beach, 28 days later. 

If there is a title of his I wish more people would see its this one

6d5888b121c70ffdf8d62dcb366dce7c.jpg

Made 2 years prior to Trainspotting. 

Another title which come to mind with a similar plot which I thoroughly enjoyed

was this one. It's not Danny Boyle and I'm not sure if its an independent film or not.

But I think its seriously underrated and well worth watching.

The Piano

 

Life is Beautiful.

That should be The Pianist not The Piano.

 

Did see The Piano but can't remember much.

Fight Club

 

I watched Fight Club immediately after first viewing! With such a great plot twist, the second viewing was like watching a new film  :D

a certain Australian vampire won best supporting actor at a young age

While you are thinking of that - here are 2 other bits of interesting information

 

(the excellent) Holly Hunter - who won best actress - played all the pieces herself

was the last movie that kurt cobain watched (before Courtney killed him)
