That one that helps you sleep, or that you could watch a thousand times?

Mine is the 1970s animated version of The Hobbit.

Only ever had one, kinda. Though I'm not sure I'd call it comfortable? But it's... visceral, which is mildy amusing because it's trying to be cerebrial, but too much of the dialogue is just scattered quotes and philosophy references. Anyways, the movie is Ghost in the Shell: Innocence. The second one that was directed by Mamoru Oshii. These days, I don't get anything out of watching it anymore. I watched it one too many times. But I've never taken to any movie like I did that one, so, it wins.

Why was it comforting exactly?

It gave me a sort of feeling I didn't get from anything else, that I liked. But it's kind of hard to describe. Like standing on the edge of an epiphany but never quite grasping it.
