TFA blurb review

[edit]

Groundhog Day is a 1993 American fantasy comedy film directed by Harold Ramis and written by Ramis and Danny Rubin. It stars Bill Murray, Andie MacDowell, and Chris Elliott. Murray portrays Phil Connors, a cynical television weatherman who becomes trapped in a time loop while covering the annual Groundhog Day event in Punxsutawney, Pennsylvania, forcing him to relive February 2 over and over again. Principal photography took place from March to June 1992 almost entirely in Woodstock, Illinois. Filming during the bitterly cold weather was difficult, in part because of conflicts between Ramis and Murray. Groundhog Day received generally positive reviews and earned over $70.9 million to become one of the highest-grossing films of 1993. Over time, many critics have included it in their lists of top comedy films. The term "Groundhog Day" has become part of the English lexicon as a way to describe a monotonous, unpleasant, and repetitive situation. (Full article...)
