People like blood sausage !

Rating: Null/10 (22 November 1999)

Well as I sit here in Akron,Ohio I am reminded of the greatest movie ever made; GROUNDHOG DAY, I know I may have said this previously at many occasions, but it rocks ! So ever since we saw it for the Nth time at Peel, it stays on my mind all the time, it's insane, I got a lot out of it. after all this time and so many viewings ! I really got a different vibe from it this time, of course it was funny again and I laughed again, but it stroke a different psychological effect. Or moral I should say, even philosophical I would dare to say. or simply said - a good life lesson. First, let me say that I was surprised this time at just how good of an actor Bill Murray is in this movie, in my opinion THE best ever, but that's just a side track, what really hit me this time is funny 'cos it's almost as if I finally understood the movie, I saw it as a one piece, as opposed to how I use to see the movie as a 3 or 4 different parts. Now I comprehended the evolution of Phil like never before, the whole thing about how he grew up as a man (and therefore got the girl- though that's not even the most important part) when he begins to care for others. It's more than just taking care of himself by learning the piano or sculpting, he really gets to grow and improve as a human being when he begins to care for others, all others, needle head Ned included. Even the girl (Andy McD.) doesn't care for needle head Ned, but Phil does, he buys all the insurance from him. The old ladies, the old man and even Larry (pastry Larry). It reminds me of this coworker I have who is hated by everybody, and whenever I am nice to her it makes me feel better than usual because to care for her is more difficult than to care for a nice person. I could go on for pages, maybe I will but not today. So to be truly a groundhog man you have to be good towards everyone.
