Default Strange Habits?

How many times approximately have you watched your favourite film ? ,in any senario, cinema home, etc.,what is it and how do you watch ? .do you find youself quoting lines out loud seconds before or simutainiously(?) they appear, or do you lose yourself in it and become unaware of everything around you? Or any other strange rituals you want to confess?

Lots, far too many to count, or to even have a vague idea of the number of times I've seen it. Probably well over 100 times at various cinemas and many, many more on video & DVD.

What is it? A Matter of Life and Death (1946)

Some lines I'll say out loud with the actors because they're so delicious - but only when I'm on my own. I don't like it when people do that in a cinema (except at special singalong performances of The Rocky Horror Picture Show or The Sound of Music), so I don't do it.

I do lose myself in it and become unaware of (almost) everything around me.
The only strange thing, which isn't really a ritual, is that despite seeing it so many times, I'll be in floods of tears by the end. But they're not tears of sorrow by any means. I cry because I'm so happy and because it's (to me) such a perfect film
