It took me years after the course to enjoy a film because I spent the whole time analysing camera angles, lighting, score, editing and every other aspect and didn't have any chance to actually turn my brain off and watch for enjoyment!
It's been so long that I can analyse a film if I want to, but now spend my time watching for enjoyment than academic or critical purposes.
