I generally don't like watching a movie more than once, but these are some of my exceptions:
Casablanca - I can only take the wrenching once or twice a decade
Wizard of Oz - so delightful, esp the songs
What's Eating Gilbert Grape - Depp & DiCaprio at their best, plus the mother's role is unique
Soylent Green - the futuristic projection is stunning, less glitzy than BladeRunner and a great surprise ending
Sixth Sense - love playing it a second time with the added knowledge from the surprise ending
African Queen - Bogey & Hepburn, & if that's not enough, love,adventure & suspense while floating down the river in Africa
A&E's Pride & Prejudice - so true to the book & such great acting
Notorious - Cary Grant & Ingrid Bergman - my favorite Hitchcock.
Great scenes: (1)Vanessa Redgrave's cameo in "Julia" (2)Bette Midler talking to her parents on the phone while on heroin in "The Rose"
