Name 5 films you have seen 5 times

[YADA]

Argh, make it stop, make it stop. I can’t stand that film.

I can almost agree with you - musicals being my least favorite genre of movies - at least the singing and songs fit the story line … and truthfully - for me it is not so much the movie itself [I did not see it when it came out] but the memories of watching that movie with my children after I was an adult and seeing it through their eyes - the memories of laughter, pop corn and yes … songs sung … so its a movie I have watched many times and always with little people I love … and now with grandchildren

If you have not watched The Mission which made the Vatican’s 40 best movies ever made - a list they published around 1996ish … much to the chagrin of Hollywood … who could not see why as in their mind it illustrates the worst in the Church’s history - I watched it and saw a story that depicted the not just the worst of the Church but also the very best … and such is life that dance between good and evil, good men who sometimes fail and some who are heroic even when that heroism is all for naught … and reading the book about the making of the Mission is really as interesting and compelling a story as the movie itself.

Have you see The Boxtrolls by Laika as well? Another good one.

Yes, Sir Ben Kingsley took his role very seriously, even practicing talking with his mouth full to simulate an allergic reaction. My favorite line from Winnie: “I was promised mountains of bones!”

I did not know that about Kingsley. Now I want to re-watch it again!
