I never liked watching them, being forced to watch a movie against your will immediately ruins whatever it is.
In the mid 90s I don’t think I would have ever watched Lorenzo’s Oil on my own. It’s a drama about parents trying to find a cure for their kid’s disease. A disease so rare there is no one researching it. Oh and it’s directed by George Miller, director of the Mad Max movies.
Also the 60s adaptation of Flowers for Algernon “Charly” was wild to see as a kid. It’s very much a 60s film. Still the only adaptation I’ve seen. Only ever saw it the once. But I recall the teacher standing next to the TV with a sheet of paper to cover the screen for a couple scenes … I’m now incredibly curious what was in those scenes.
