    I was travelling in Europe for the first time. As the movie wasn't available in the theaters where I lived, I decided to see what all the fuss was about while in Amsterdam (appropriately). One viewing was enough for my lifetime.

    The Great Escape, Casablanca... maybe The Wizard of Oz when I was a kid (and I've never seen it in colour). I need to wait a few years between viewings for most films that I own.
