Favorite Comfort Films

Rewatched, Once Upon a Time in Hollywood, for about the 100th time late last night. That movie just will never get old for me, with Brad Pitt, Leo, Pacino, the overall golden age hollywood vibe and pop culture references. One of my favorite midnight “comfort films”. One of my others being the Oceans trilogy due to its all star cast, and cool vibe.
But, this got me wondering what are some of yalls “comfort” films? Ones that you go back over and over again to for enjoyment.
Some on my list.
Oceans Trilogy
Once Upon a Time
Swingers
Pulp Fiction
These last three are just nostalgic action films that were made in such an authentic way before CGI took over.
Indiana Jones, The Last Crusade
Jurassic Park
The Mummy

I never realized it but Rocky. I've probably watched it 20 times since it's been showing on HBO/Cinemax and I just like having it on
