I did that too, watched "the Deer Hunter" well after it's time (I think I saw it 5 years ago) and it was interesting but the characters were so unlikeable and self-destructive. Maybe because we don't know war and its stresses (though we've been at war in the Middle East for 10+ years as a country) we can't relate to the characters or events.
