Good/ Great Movies You Can Only Watch Once


Movies are usually so good that you want to rewatch again, sometimes immediately. But sometimes, there are movies which you know is good after you watch, but is too strong or too depressing to be watched again soon.

Any movies come to mind?

Top of my head, for me are:

Room
Grave of the Fireflies
American History X

Lord of the Rings.

but is too strong or too depressing to be watched again soon.

The Mist.

Ironweed...it was such a depressing movie & I see no need to see it again.
Trainspotting...baby in the crib...I cried for a solid 30 minutes. Don't want to see it again!

Irreversible

The ones that come close for me are Rogue One and Les Mis. Although I have rewatched them or plan to, they are rather tragic.
