I used to rewatch “The man who wasn’t there” yearly. I’d often desaturate the TV because out works so well in black and white.
Braid (dir by Mitzi Peirone)
This is probably my favourite film of the last decade, it’s beautifully shot, written and directed, and the three lead actresses are fantastic.
Imo Braid is endlessly rewatchable too as it never fully explains what’s actually going on, or what is fully real, and with each rewatch you notice new things and kinda start to piece more of the story together.
For me -
- Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles (1990)
- Godzilla (1954 & 1956)
- Gamera (1965)
- The Lord of the Rings (all three, extended editions)
- Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon (2000)
And proof that I’m kinda a film nerd (and I had family in journalism)…
- Citizen Kane (1941)
Oh, and most Star Trek movies.
Palm Springs , because it’s an easy watch, it’s funny and there is not much to stress out about.
Any of the “Cornetto trilogy” by Edgar Wright and starring Pegg and Frost, my favorite being Hot Fuzz . I’d even add Scott Pilgrim. There are so many details, jokes, references and other easter eggs that I just don’t tire of watching them.
Finally, one of my all-time favs is Amelie , it awakened my love for cinema, it is beautiful, it has a heartwarming message and there is no real conflict in it.
Princess Bride, and I enjoyed watching Ready Player One a few times. Any Month Python movie. Mr Nobody.

V for Vendetta
“Marathon Man” It was written by the author of “The Princess Bride” and was designed to need rewatching. A minor character in one scene shows up halfway through the story. A casual conversation gives away an entirely new slant on two characters.
“Big Trouble In Little China.” I can’t believe I’m the first to mention this one. Completely stupid on every level, yet it works perfectly.
…is it safe?
