The most re-watchable movies of the last 50 years, revealed – Shortlist

For the launch of the Pixel 5, Google has teamed up with the BFI to reveal what the most re-watchable movies of the last 50 years are.

Given we are all spending a hell of a lot more time at home right now, there's plenty of opportunity to watch a movie - and one that you have seen before. Yes, there are lots of new movies out but this is a bit of a fallow year for blockbusters and the like, so if you don't fancy something new then the BFI has come up with a list of re-watchable movies that have to follow the blow criteria:

The list, according to the BFI has been compiled in certain categories, with the British Film Institute noting: "Different genres of films work on us in different ways. Ever find yourself choosing a film based on your mood? A comedy to cheer you up? A dead-of-night horror to scare yourself senseless? A romance to weep to?

"Weve broken down our list of 50 Most Re-Watchable British Films into genres (Laugh, Scare, Romance, Drama, Action, Cult and Biography), but all of them share characteristics that speak to why theyve become favourites of audiences; a criteria that seeks to examine our nostalgic affinity for our most beloved movies."

The list of the movies is below. Google has revealed that these movies will be available to rent on Google Play as part of its "Google Pixel presents Mobile Cinema - a unique experience that will let people discover and download films around the UK with Google Maps, from the comfort of their sofas."

This is happening, according to Google, in mid November and is set to show off the speedy downloads of the new Google Pixel 5.
