What film have you watched the most times?

[Garage_Doors]

I've not heard of the vast majority of the films mention in this thread but for me it's either Scum or Snatch.
Would have mentioned deep throat but only watch 5 mins at a time rather than the whole film.

Life of brian

 

[Eeyore]

I've seen a few Mike Leigh films more than once, simply because I love their social commentary.

There are three I've seen many times that stand out, and are rather diverse in contrast.

Firstly, Ghandi. I remember seeing it round a friends one Sunday afternoon. I barely spoke for the three hours it was on. I heard afterwards that one of the scenes had 10,000 extras-an amazing piece of direction. The individual performances are a proud piece of cinematic history.

Secondly, Life of Brian. It never fails to make me laugh, mainly because, having a church background, some of the more subtle humour is not lost on me.

Thirdly, an unusual choice, Priscilla Queen of the Desert. As well as being comical, it follows more or less the exact route that I travelled around Australia when I lived there. To the point that the pub they stayed in at Broken Hill was one I visited when I arrived there in search of accommodation late one evening. The scene with the aboriginals, and the desolate location of Cooper Pedy are places I, unintentionally, found myself stuck in due to an error in my scheduling. Even the pub/club in Alice Springs is one I spent a drunken night at.

I've watched these a few times but probably the first one wins it , I prefer factual films ,well the last one could of happened , who knows ?
Killing Fields
Deer Hunter
Life of Brian

The killing fields is a very strong film.

That it's probably not true. Snopes (the website you've linked) say so themselves http://www.snopes.com/lost/false.asp

I haven't ever watched any film over and over again, but films I would sit down and watch if they came on , and consequently have seen several times, are:

The Day of the Jackal

Has just started on ITV4, and rather stupidly I have just put it on.


Stat's gonna be grumpy in the morning.

 

[Gully Forever]

One of the 3 below, Lost count on them.

Underworld
Die Hard
The Matrix

 

[Mackenzie]

Star Wars or Kelly's Heroes.

 

[5mins-from-amex]

Dead mans shoes, Great film.

 

[lawros left foot]

The Godfather films, and Oliver! every Christmas

 

[Easy 10]

I'm a Tarantino nut, so whenever I'm flicking through and Pulp Fiction comes on I find it almost impossible to turn over, regardless of how far in it is. Reservoir Dogs is another one of those - just SO many scenes in that movie to look forward to (the Tim Roth Mr Orange bit where he's practicing his whole backstory is just masterful writing and a truly brilliant performance). I must've seen both those films 20 times.

Gladiator I've probably seen almost as often. Fabulous.

 

[Gwylan]

Les Enfants du Paradis - must have seen it about 30 or 40 times.

There a whole load of films on this thread that I've not even seen once (Zulu, The Matrix, Die Hard, Fast and Furious, Robin Hood, Aliens etc etc)

 

[smeg]

tricky one:

The warriors
Limitless
Close encounters of the third kind

Not sure how many times i've watched these movies but more than ten times I'd say
