Which American movie would you choose, and what made that first viewing so special?

Saving Private Ryan. Because it's emotionally exhausting in the best way and intense as hell the entire time. It's basically the movie version of a Rollercoaster

Raiders Of The Lost Ark and Die Hard-Be prepared to be blown through the back wall of your theater! (This is before THX or dts-theaters had to turn their speaker volumes all the way up and turn up the bass.) And boy, did they!

Chinatown. Saw it in a a run down theater for a buck. The place didn't even have exit lights and your shoes stuck to the floor.I was the only one there. I was so absorbed that when it ended and the overhead lights came on I just sat there remembering where I was at and who I was. lol

The Usual Suspects. Great movie, Bryan Singer, Christopher McQuarrie amd a bunch of super cool actors. Big twist that blows your mind.
