It was 'Everybody's Talkin' and an episode in American Dad that made me watch it.

Had to watch it for a film history class apparently it was one of the first movies after the Mpaa was created to have sex in it but not be considered a porno

I saw it in the theater when I was 16. All these years later I still like the movie.

I discovered it because of the AFI 100 years a 100 quotes list.
Ha. I had forgotten that. I would have never thought it would eventually become my favorite film of all times.

John Schlesinger, Dustin Hoffman, Waldo Salt - My love and admiration for them made me want to see it.

I was around 15 or 16 and had to stay at my mother's house for some reason. The movie was on network TV and it was Christmas Eve, so I figured 'why not?'. The younger me thought it was going to have a happy ending with the boys living the life in Florida.
In a weird way, that one movie set a tradition that I watch something very anti-holiday on Christmas. Usually a killer Santa or a crime drama.

We had one of those old radios that my auntie listened to while I helped her in the kitchen. I must have been about 4 or 5, and I remembered this song that was so soothing. I heard it again on the trailer for MC once we got movie channels, and it brought me back to that warm kitchen with my auntie (who was long gone by then). I had to watch the movie.
The music was by John Barry with Toots Thielemans haunting harmonica.

I first rented this film on VHS in the mid-1980's.
You've seen Guy Standeven in something because the man was in everything.
