**Movies you’ve never watched all the way through but have seen enough pieces of it you might as well have.** 1. The Shining 2. Citizen Kane I took a couple film courses in college and the instructor walked us through several scenes of _Citizen Kane_, showing us some of the techniques and tricks that Orson Welles used as well as discussing the movie overall and its place at the time and in history. Yet we didn’t just watch it all the way through. ---

**Movies you’ve never watched all the way through but have seen enough pieces of it you might as well have.** 1. The Shining 2. Citizen Kane 3. Moana My wife saw it in the theater with our nieces, and it’s one of her favorite movies. She will watch it regularly on Disney+, or if she stumbles across it on a cable channel; I think I’ve now effectively seen the entire movie, but never all in one sitting. ---

The Exorcist 6. Titanic (the pretentious one; OK, the pretentious one in color) I saw the boat sink on _The Making of…_ documentary, and liked it enough to watch that part of the actual movie the next time it was on-- pretty cool. Next time, I sat down with some relatives as it was coming on TV, an watched about 20 minutes of the beginning, then left and said “Call me when they hit the iceberg.” Once FF through a DVD to get the the part where the hit the iceberg (like, the last **10 minutes** ), so I caught lots of bits of the first part. Another time, I got talked into watching a big chunk of what comes before the ice, and consequently, slept through the first bit of the k. Nobody else wanted to rewind ---
