last night the wizard of oz was on. i've seen that movie probably 50 times over the course of my life. it got me thinking about other films i enjoy watching more than once. for example, i could watch tootsie or driving miss daisy or to kill a mockingbird over and over, and find them as entertaining as the first time i saw them.

what movies are like that for you?
