Another movie I love is The Thin Man I watch it every time it comes on TCM even though I've seen it dozens of times.
Love
The Thin Man!
That,
High Society,
and
(bizarrely)
Shag: The Movie
are three movies that my sister and I will always watch and quote constantly.
Other classics that get repeated viewings
Arsenic and Old Lace, It Happened One Night, The Palm Beach Story, The Lady Vanishes, His Girl Friday.
Basically, if it's a screwball comedy, or by Hitchcock, I'm there; except I'm very meh on
Bringing Up Baby
and
Philadelphia Story
(but that's only because I saw
High Society
first and the dialogue is almost exactly same).
People that don't like Bull Durham are simply bad human beings.
The parts of it I've seen (because I've never watched the whole thing) don't really grab me. But then, the only reason I liked Field of Dreams was for the fantasy/magical reality aspects of the story. Movies about sports (and especially movies about baseball) Are Not My Thing. At all.
So, does this mean I get to choose a different species to be, since I'm a bad human?
And I hate High Society because I saw The Philadelphia Story first.
freakish loathing of Martin Sheen
It's like I don't even know you.
I'm telling you, a formative-years viewing of The Little Girl Who Lives Down the Lane (in which Sheen plays a totally creeptastic pedophile) can scar a girl for life.

Better now?
I liked FG when I saw it, but not on rewatch. I've, uh, changed a bunch, to put it mildly.
Bull Durham is so sexy I forgot I know nothing of baseball. Although I do know little stuff now from being a Countdown fangirl... KO's always got some '60s southpaw to give geek props to.
I am going to see Bull Durham for the express purpose of not liking it, now.
Oh, don't do that...it's really fun. Bossy!Hec or no.
I need to watch some movies with Gloomcookie's GF.
Her original goal in life was to teach Women In Film. She would have rocked at it.
People that don't like Bull Durham are simply bad human beings. I don't mean to impugn your taste, but it's a proven fact. Really, it's not even a question of taste, it's about your worth as human beings on this planet. Consider yourselves judged.
But it's BORING.
And tries way too hard to be Sexy.
It's like Smoov B, but sincere and with baseball.
BLEH.
