Groundhog Day**
US 1993. Columbia. 101m.
A weatherman reports on an annual local festival heralding the beginning of winter, and then finds himself living the same day over again. And again. And again....
Enjoyable Twilight Zone-style romantic comedy which indulges itself with the many comedic possibilities although it sentimentalizes towards the end.

Producers: Trevor Albert, Harold Ramis.
Director: Harold Ramis.
Starring: Bill Murray, Andie MacDowell, Chris Elliott, Stephen Tobolowsky, Brian Doyle-Murray, Marita Geraghty, Angela Paton, Rick Ducommun, Rick Overton.
Photography: John Bailey.
Music: George Fenton.
Preceded by:
Thundering Fleas*
(US 1926. 20m. bw; A flea circus runs amok.; w: H.M. Walker, Carl Harbaugh, Hal Yates; P: Hal Roach; d: Robert F. McGowan; s: Our Gang, George French, Oliver Hardy, James Finlayson, Charley Chase.)
