What film would you watch 365 days in a row?

Inspired by this article where a media studies lecturer watched GroundHog day every day for a year , what would be your film?

For myself it would have to be short enough so ruling out the likes of Once Upon a Time in America, Gandhi , Casino etc

I’d probably go “Life of Brian” - maybe by the end of the year I’d know every single line by heart - well at least the funniest ones of which there are many

Top Gun

I don’t stream it, search Sky for it or watch the dvd I still have but every time I see it listed on the epg I watch it

David Lynch's What Did Jack Do?

https://www.imdb.com/title/tt11644096/

It's only 17 minutes long, and it has a talking monkey. It's on Netflix, I watch it about once a month, and enjoy it every time.

Chances are after watching the same movie for 365 days you're going to hate it - so I'd pick something I already don't like so it wouldn't ruin it for me. Something like Demolition Man.

I was going to say that but at over 2 hours I felt it was too long to watch every day- while I love the film I think I’d end up mad by the end of it

At one stage TNT used to show Where Eagles Dare so often it seemed like it was every day.

The Matrix

Toss up between Jaws, Star Wars, or Day of the Dead.

The longest day. I think that's the name of it. Sure I do not love it or hate it but at least if I ended up hating it I would not miss it because I was going to say Star Trek: "First Contact" but actually I could watch Star Trek: "Generations" every day for 365days and not hate it:)

The Terminator or Terminator 2. There was a time when I used to constantly watch T-2 almost on a daily basis. I recorded on a VHS tape and would often rewind the parts of the movie I loved.
