I never catch everything on the first watch through, if something is amazing, I really really don’t mind missing bits, because I’m going to watch it again, and missing bits actually makes the next watch through feel more like a new version, with outtakes. Plus hearing someone who has already watched multiple times and loves the film, describing just small 2 minute windows, on your first watch through, gives you a whole new perspective on the film. I would argue, in some ways, it makes the experience better. It savours it.
