The best movies you've only ever seen once

When a movie is awesome you tend to view it multiple times over the years, but bizarrely enough there are a group of movies I'd consider pretty damn great that I've only ever seen once. This list is gonna vary from person to person but here are a few of mine.
older movies
On The Waterfront
Cool Hand Luke
The Sting
newer
Saving Private Ryan
Gladiator
Kill Bill 1/2
Inception
Interstellar
those are just a few that come to mind, saw all of the newer ones in the theater, but haven't ever seen them again

I've only seen it once and I agree it is a great movie, but it is somewhat overhyped because of Brando.

Interstellar
This would be my instinctive pick for your category right now.

I used to drink very heavily in the 80's and 90's and watched most of the best movies of that era drunk and cant remember anything about them other than the title of the movie.
Do any of these count or do I have to watch them again to qualify?

Ex Machina, I probably need to watch it again at some point to see if it’s as good as I remembered.

Downfall
Silence of the Lambs
This is England
Hamburger Hill
Juno (I must admit I've only seen it once because after I realized what a count Ellen Page is, I never wanted to see it again. I loved it in theaters)

I'll always watch a great movie at least twice. The exception is Schindler's List. I only needed to see it once. Masterpiece but a hard watch.

Ditto Grave of Fireflies.
Add "Perfect Sense". Great movies that make me feel like shite. Will never rewatch.

There are about 20 movies I have watched more than once, Pulp Fiction, We Were Soldiers Once, Forest Gump, Private Ryan, Shawshank, The Godfather, and a few others.
I’m pretty much once and done on movies, even ones I like. Tropic Thunder was great, but I’ve never seen it again. I don’t carve out time for many movies, so I tend to try something new when I do watch.
Tropic Thunder gets my vote.

Lawrence of Arabia
Adding this just because I’m thinking about watching it again this weekend. One of the most beautiful movies ever made and I thought Omar Sharif was particularly great in it. Obviously Peter O’Toole and Alec Guinness were great too.

As far as movies go that I've only seen once, but don't ever plan to see again, my first pick would be Gravity. I thought it was great, but it was a "one and done" flick for me because I know my enjoyment would decrease substantially after each repeated viewing.

Comedies are generally a one and done, unless it’s something in the background or showing a friend the movie kinda thing. More likely to rewatch something live Forrest Gump/saving private Ryan than something like scary movie or the cable guy
