Movies you watch again and again?

Every time I catch the movie Major League on TV, I pick up on a nuance of character development that I missed in previous viewings. This time I noticed how the character Roger Dorn, who was unwilling to risk getting hit by a ball for fear of messing up his looks, has a change of heart and is willing to risk getting smacked up and bruised for the team.

I love that film. Great story lines, perfect editing and nice music, especially the instrumental variations on Bill Medley's Most of All You. It always gives me warm fuzzies at the end.
 
Fanny and Alexander (1982), 312 minute 4 part Swedish tv version. Once the next Barnes & Noble 50 % off Criterion sale comes along, I'll be able to watch it again (and again).
 
This, for instance. That's not dog.

Hunting for Hogzilla. This ole boy hunted what he thought was a 500-600 lb wild boar for years. He'd set up
high in a tree and put out bait. He used a blue or green filtered flashlight to try spotlight the thing when it got near. And every time he'd shine that
light near Hogzilla, it would see the blue or green light and run off. (maybe he didn't know that wild hogs
can see blue or green light?) Forgot where this was, Arkansas or Georgia or somewhere though. He may should
have used a red filter on his big light. Anyways, the hog ran oft 50 miles away and he still tracked him after about
3 years. He finally got a shot with his rifle, and the following photo tells the tale. Turned out he tipped the scale
at just over 1000 lbs. (that's about 455 kg for our European and Down Under friends) Maybe he DID finally use
a red filter on his 20,000 lumen Chinee light. (You can see his light on top of his rifle)
Here's the photo from that movie: http://thelibertarianrepublic.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/03/TrophyHog.jpg

"McFarland, USA", just came out on Amazon. Bought it, and watched it three times already.
Another where the production wasn't as good, but the story was, is "Spare Parts". Marisa Tomei, is looking as good as ever.

"Open Range", love the story line. My all time favorite Cowboy era movie.
"Down Periscope", just a funny movie
"Salmon Fishing in the Yemen", might be slow moving for some, but really like this one.
"Return to Me", romantic comedy with a predictable story line, but done with a great cast.
"Guardians of the Galaxy", funny darn movie.
