Sunday found me sitting and knitting in front of the television. I'd started a new project and the tv, specifically the food network, made for good background noise. Mostly because I don't need to pay full attention to know what's going on. After about 3 hours though, I needed something new. A quick surf of available channels, and I found two movies: Maid in Manhattan, and Grease. I've seen them both. I liked them both. But there was no question. Despite the fact that I've seen it more times than I can count, Grease won.
The thing about Grease, is that it falls into my own little category of movies: "Movies that I will watch whenever they are on tv, regardless of how many times I've seen them or whatever else is on". Other movies in this category are: Trading Places, Beetlejuice, and Clueless. I'm sure I could think of more, but you get the idea. Movies that aren't cinematic works of genius, but they're just kind of fun. I know, I could just buy them on dvd and watch them whenever I want, but that wouldn't be any fun now, would it?
What's on your list of "I will always watch" movies?
