i love rewatching movies but my sister hates that i consider them in my count of movies i've seen in a year. besides my belief that you're always a different person every time you see a movie even if you've see it over and over again, i just love the way a rewatch can hurt even more knowing what happens.... i guess i'm speaking more about heartbreaking and bittersweet movies because it just hits different when you linger on moments knowing they will come to an end (DAMN...)
my rewatch of past lives in the cinema last week made me think about this again. i will always defend rewatches, even for movies like the princess diaries or easy a.
does anyone else love rewatching? do you include rewatches in your movie counts?

The first time I watched Almost Famous I watched it through, finished it, loved it and then restarted it. Watching the same movie to completion twice in a row. I’ve done that with quite a few movies. The amount of free time I’ve had in my life to be able to watch movies several times in one sitting is criminal. When I was like 10 I watched The Shining and it immediately became my favorite movie ever and still is. Anyway, I finished it then watched it again so this has been a recurring theme throughout my life. Do any PI peeps do this too? I haven’t in a while because I’ve recently felt like watching movies is a waste of time. Until I watch a movie and I then think about it every day for the rest of my life. I watched Kids a couple weeks ago and since then I have consistently been analyzing it in my head. Always thinking about things that don’t matter, it’s fun.
