Just found Roman Holiday is on today

What classic films will you make a point to sit and watch when they're on?

The original 12 angry men.

I also have to watch Gladiator if it's on. I'm not sure I'd say it's a classic...more of an addiction for me. I just really like the movie

My definition of a classic... Can you watch it again and again

I can only think of one actor who's appeared in multiple classics(over 8), Micheal Caine!

Zulu, man who would be king, Italian job, get Carter, Hanna and her sisters, sleuth, too late the hero, ipcress trilogy, fourth protocol, little voice, cider house rules, bridge too far, educating Rita and mona Lisa.

And he's played the four main characters of any film, the goodie, the baddie, the hero and the coward?
