Movie: Groundhog Day (1993)

Plot: A TV reporter and his producer leave for a small town to cover a locally popular festive day ritual. The reporter lives,relives and keeps reliving that day in his dream before the day even takes place in reality & in the process realises his love for his producer and with successive dreams, tries to get himself ready to make her find him strikingly similar to her in tastes.

Highlights:

• There are films with weird plots.Not all are made convincingly,but this one is! A warm and feel-good ride it is and the different repetitive scenes are nicely etched.
• Bill Murray as the eternal dreamer Phil shows he is one terrific talent with his easy show of a variety of emotions.
• The alarm clock scenes, the action of the lady who plays the producer and the touchy old-man scene are worth a mention. 

Yours Eccentrically,
A weird feel-good film that shows today can be tomorrow!
