30-40 years is madness!! Phil learned how to play the piano, carve ice sculptures, hand create life art, and learn every minute detail about everybody in the town. I wonder how many times he just said fuck it and never got out of bed.....
How much time he spent is an EXTREMELY debated topic. However, in the first draft, it is said that Phil read every book in the library. A. Page. Every. Day. Given that the Punxatawney library is stated to have a bit over 29,000 books (29,084 if you want an exact amount), and that the average book page length is 273 pages, using simple multiplication, we can find that Phil spent AT LEAST 21,738 years in the loop. The reason for its removal is that the producer thought it was too big of a concept for mainstream audiences to grasp.
my favorite scene appears at the end this short doc. I love the way Phil turns his head and answers the Jepordy question, and the look of horrific concern on the face of the housekeeper--
I especially love the Jeopardy scene with the B&B hostess being horrified at her guests clapping to Phil's total precognition of the Jeopardy questions directed right at her.
Severe stomach flu with diarrhea, fever and vomiting works as well. And best part of it is : he knows even killing himself does not save him because tomorrow it all starts all over again . That is what Christians probably meant describing hell. You feel miserable, you feeling this is the worst day of your life and it never gets better ,you cant even die . Compared to this Murray had pretty good Groundhog day. He even got laid with woman who made noises like chipmunk when she was real excited ..
7:25 I recently learned that the movie also accurately depicts the five stages of mourning (denial, rage, bargaining, depression and acceptance) in Phil's character arc. One of my top 5 movies ever.
I parked next to Harold Ramos at an LA kings game. We got to the doors at the same moment and looked at each other and I said "Dont drive angry". He smiled...... So I got that going for me, which is nice.
That's a good one, I'll have to tell that to Pope Francis, Roger Federer, Paul McCartney, Beyoncé and Queen Elizabeth at our usual lunch together tomorrow- if there's one thing I can't stand it's name-droppers
When this came out, I was really young and over the summer my dad played Groundhog Day every day in the morning. I hated Groundhog Day for a while, but now I get the joke.
I got to see this 3 times in the cinema when it first came out (during the first viewing a fire broke out in the cinema and we came back the next day to watch it!) Still watch it every now & then as it's a classic!
I would like to see Shawshank Redemption talked about, a film that blossomed into a classic despite underwhelming reviews when it first hit the screens
Honestly, many people say "i can only imagine so-and-so in the role" but i think the Michael Keaton or Tom Hanks versions would be interesting as well...
Tom said he didnt think audiences would except him as a jerk character untill his redemption later in the movie. I think he was wrong is this regard. He pulled off the drunk mega jerk quite well in leauge of their own.
In my opinion, Keaton is too aware of himself (and his mouth), pretentious even, vs Bill Murray's nonchalance -which can be played as jaded or relaxed. Hanks on the other hand is too bland.
I grew up in Crystal Lake, Illinois, which is right next to Woodstock. They filmed Groundhog Day there when I was about 6 or 7 and I remember there being a lot of excitement around the filming. I actually remember going to the Tip Top Cafe a year or two after the movie came out! It only lasted a few years, sadly. To make things even more interesting to me I would end up moving to Pennsylvania when I was 10 where I have been ever since, and although I'm nowhere near Punxatawny it is interesting how the movie is related to both my home states. But even putting all that aside, even without the personal connection, this movie would still be one of my favorites of all time. It's a subtle masterpiece with a very humble, low-key style of presentation that hides layers of depth and meaning.The characters, the setting, and the progression of the story of Phil as he goes through several distinct phases is all masterfully done, tied together by Bill Murray's excellent acting. The movie gets surprisingly dark with its themes of death, but never loses its heart. Even little things like the choice of "You Don't Know Me" by Ray Charles in the gazebo scene are done right. Everything is in balance with this movie and it earns a perfect 10 in my book. I watch this movie every Groundhog Day and never get tired of it.
Love this movie, Bill Murray is perfect in the role as a burned out narcissistic weatherman...watch it every Feb 2nd. Really enjoyed your take on this fine feature film, thanks!
Groundhog Day is my favorite movie. At the time, I did not like Bill Murray as an actor, so I passed on the movie when it first ran. I met an old friend I had not seen since college at a bookstore. We chatted a while and then decided to go to the dollar theater in the same shopping center to take in a movie together. That is how I saw Groundhog Day. It changed my life. "I love this film. I've seen it over a hundred times." That is true for me and Groundhog Day. I owned a copy on VHS. I now have it on DVD. I love the move Amadeus, too, but it is a clear second to Groundhog Day.
Great job!!!! I have always loved this film do to the fact that it falls on the day of my b-day (feb. 2) and i always imagined waking up to it being my b day over and over again
I may have shared this before. Back in 1994, I had a 4-hour flight delay out of La Guardia Airport. I headed for the American Admirals Club and ran into Harold Ramis and an associate in the elevator. I introduced myself and shared that we had mutual friends in Joe Medjuck and Ivan Reitman from "Stripes" and "Ghostbusters". They invited me to join them for what turned into a delightful 4-hour conversation. They were in town location scouting for a new picture "with Billy Crystal and Bobby DeNiro" ("Analyze This"). Over drinks, I had to ask the obvious question- "how long was Phil Connor trapped in Groundhog Day?" "56 years" was his prompt reply. I've heard other numbers, some attributed to Ramis. I heard it from the source.
If you were born in Pittsburgh and return to the city at least once (but usually several times) a year, and you are 52 years old, you avoid Punxatawney instinctively.
Kudos to Danny Rubin & Harold Ramis for writing a classic about a man going through a transformation from a selfish animal-like existence to one of service to mankind. "This is worship, to serve mankind and to minister to the needs of the people.” ~ Baha'i Faith
WELL DONE MY FRIEND AND THANK YOU, I do indeed deeply appreciate your indepth remarks and running commentary. ! HAVE AN absolutely AWESOME DAY OUT THERE TODAY, Over and Over and Over Again,...... ! =)

this is a great video! I have a special connection to the movie 1. I live a half hour away from Woodstock and have family who lives there 2. my best friends grandpa is in the movie. he is the foot that walks in the puddle at some point. admittedly I'm not too familiar with the movie, so I don't know when exactly it happens, but I still think it's cool. happy Thanksgiving Mr beat! I'm very thankful for your fun, interesting and informative content!
I haven't met anyone that realizes that Harold Ramis made a mistake. Toward the end of the movie after Bill comes down off the stage from playing with the band, the piano teacher says "he's my student" and this would have never happened. Sometime during the night he would have approached the band and let them know he's a musician and they would offer for him to sit in with the band, because he knew to win Ali's favor was to play an instrument. The teachers response after he comes down from playing with the band would have been much different. Somewhere in the lines of - what a wonderful piano player and yes you can sit in with the band anytime! Because, she would have had NO knowledge she ever sat down one day teaching him how to play piano and there was enough time through his life at Punxsutawney to learn every song in the playlist ¿`_
Phil still took a less from the teacher earlier in the day. Because she also plays in this band, it was all the easier to sit in. Yes, kinda silly that she'd say "he's my student" after only one lesson, but it still works.
@@wirehairs sorry, there was no indication that she even saw him that day prior to the band. The events of that day did not have her taking part in his affairs. Not only did I catch it the first time I watched the movie but I've watched the movie many, many times ¿`_
I was going through my own shet at the time so I saw the movie by myself and glad I did.. I adore Bill Murray anyway but to see him through all the ups and downs helped me to plow onward into my own future.. Thank you
I absolutely love Groundhogday and endeavour to watch it once a year on..... You guessed it! I was not able to every year, but I have seen it many times. It remains a classical classic from the first time I seen it when I was 15. If you can do a video on "What dreams may come" that would be great.
Awesome and enjoyable commentary. Loved it. How about looking at "Blast from the Past" Another quirky film involving time displacement but in a different way.l
I'd like to think I have an eye for spotting new youtube channels before they blow up. You are definitely going places dude, just keep making videos and wait, the reddit hug will hit you eventually.
Why does the NEW day at 5 59 AM in the last scene (at the end of the movie) begin with the same song and very same radio DJ comments? Or maybe, when I watched the movie did I hear it wrong? Is it the same song by Sonny and Cher - but the comments are different? Reply
thanks liberty - At the very end the movie when the next day has arrived and Rita is with him - why does the same song come on the radio? Is the answer for me in this uploaded video?

You left a pretty important part of trivia out. The two men on the radio are Bob and Ray ( Bob Elliott, Ray Goulding ) comedy legends. Bob Elliot is Chris Elliot's father.
+ThatOneGamerGuy Thank you so much! Well you know, it's a new channel and it's always so challenging to get the word out when you're just starting out.

« Depression as a natural response to this reality »
No truer words were ever uttered.
I did not know (until now) it was filmed in Woodstock. I’m thinking Joni Mitchell was very lucky to be holed up in New York watching it unfold on TV.
30-40 years is wishful thinking.
Did he mention it was a love story, or is that a spoiler?
Eliminating the “Best Polka” category from the Grammys was also an outcome of this film’s success, on all-day repetition.
If you were born in Pittsburgh and return to the city at least once (but usually several times) a year, and you are 52 years old, you avoid Punxatawney instinctively.
