Considering this is only your 2nd movie you reacted to right about where Groundhog Day occurs & the editing was good, even I would have loved a few more minutes, you did a great job....subscribed !
The forecasting started in Germany and other European countries by farmers to determine harvesting and planting times. Immigrants arrived to America and continued the tradition. It turned into a event and is broadcast live from Punxsutawney, PA. It was covered at 6 o'clock this morning on the news.
No idea why he was going through that loop. I believe there is a rough number how many years he was stuck in it. I think there is a deleted scene that mentions it. It would seem his learning to be a better person was what broke the loop, because the moment he won Rita over completely, the loop was over.
Groundhog Day is a classic. Which I believe was voted among the top ten spiritual films by a panel of theologians. When I first saw it, it took me two viewings to get the message. It’s a tale of the personal growth of a jerky and lonely man. Who only gets released from his cycle of repeating Groundhog Day when he finally learns the lesson of what we are supposed to do while we are on the earth. Which is to care about one another. When Phil finally stops living selfishly for himself, and starts living to serve his fellow human beings, he is finally released from the cycle echoing the Hindu principle of reincarnation. So, while the film (smartly, I think) never addresses WHO places him in the cycle, it makes clear WHY he was placed in it. The saddest part of the film for me is the stage after Phil stops trying to commit suicide. You can feel that he genuinely loves Rita, but doesn’t know how to earn her love in return. It’s only after he lets go of trying to get what he wants, Rita, and commits to helping those around him get what they want and need that Phil what he wants and needs. Rita’s love. In addition, while I’m not sure that I would say Phil comes to love himself, you can tell that he definitely at least comes to like himself. Which is a huge deal, as a point earlier in the film, Phil confesses to Rita that he doesn’t like himself.
They removed some scenes and in return changed the plot where he would have had a voodoo curse placed on him where he had to be completely selfless on that day to break the curse. He had to be good just to do it, not to get something out of it. They kept that part in but removed the curse part. Basically the curse makes you a better person or it traps you in the loop forever.
You should check out Quickchange, With Bill Murray, Geena Davis, and Randy Quaid. Similar comedic feel though it's more about NYC. Not too many people have seen it.
A Hilarious Bill Murray movie is 1991 What about Bob ? Other hilarious movies with mental health are 1988 The Couch Trip 1989 The Dream Team 1990 Crazy People
Phil is in purgatory (first day “what the Hell?), Ned the salesman is the devil [“heckfire”; orange feather (horn) in his hat, “watch your step” (falling into Hell) “It’s a doozy,” etc.] trying to get him to sell his soul via signing a “life insurance” contract, the bartender is God watching with a smirk, and Rita is an angel.

The producers of the movie say he was stuck in the loop was 33 years 350 days
IMO, one of the top movies ever made. It's fun, it's clever, and it has real life meaning. That's hard to equal.

That girl still got booted out of her piano lessons on the last day

He couldn’t get to tomorrow until he got today right.
IMO it was "I'm happy now."
I remember when this movie came out. It was such a big hit. Now it's used to describe other movies. Like Edge of Tomorrow, etc.
Thank you.
I have been to Punxsutawney for Groundhog Day 5 times. It is a lot of fun. If you ever get the chance, you should go.
@6:51 Removed the distributor cap.
Love this girl’s reaction to films ❤ ❤❤

Are you interested in reacting to Tarzan The Fearless? It can be found on youtube
The estimation is that he spends over 30 years in the same day.
The estimation is pointless.
@@tempsitch5632 did someone say that it was?
Actually it would be the whole universe stuck in that one day and Phil is the only one who knows.
Phil is in purgatory (first day “what the Hell?), Ned the salesman is the devil [“heckfire”; orange feather (horn) in his hat, “watch your step” (falling into Hell) “It’s a doozy,” etc.] trying to get him to sell his soul via signing a “life insurance” contract, the bartender is God watching with a smirk, and Rita is an angel.
_BING!_
