FILMS THAT I LOVE ENOUGH TO WATCH …
AGAIN AND AGAIN
Notice that I didn’t call this my “favorite films” list. That list would include films such as “Platoon,” “Apocalypse Now,” “Chinatown,” “Ordinary People” and “Schindler’s List.” (Seen ‘em, don’t really need to see ‘em again anytime soon.
THESE are films I love so much that I want to watch them again … with friends (preferably those friends who haven’t seen them yet). I adore these movies!
