For me it was 'RAD', the 80s BMX movie. Was on repeat for years even though I knew it was a very poor film.
What single film did you have on obsessively in your life?

I had a few ski videos that I loved and watched over and over as they took me away from my real life and into another world in the mountains. They featured skiers like Glen Plake who was just so out there that it made me feel that another way of living was possible. Needless to say, I never became the extreme skier I dreamed of!
As a child of the 80s, I love the sound of a BMX film called RAD!!
As a child I watched Titanic and Jumanji nonstop. Went through phases of watching them every single day for months on end.
I'm not really a film fan, and often might happily spend hours reading about movies & directors but rarely bother to watch the pictures. It's ideas and interpretations which interest me more than the experience of viewing - for example, I love the idea that Welles was a bold, visionary genius and I've lots of biographies but hardly bother even to watch his most celebrated films.
Anyway, back to the thread's theme: I'll choose 'Dangerous Liaisons' because of the brilliance of Close, Malkovich and Pfeiffer and because of its heartbreaking romance.
