Groundhog Day

Groundhog Day, literally translated as "Groundhog Day." There are many translations in Chinese, among which my favorite translation is "Stealing Love", which sounds very romantic. What will the marriage seized from heaven look like?
This seems to be an older film, but it does not prevent it from firmly attracting your attention.
Can you imagine a person living the same day life over and over again? If so, how would you react? Our hero, pil, a famous weather forecaster, experienced such a thing. From shock, fear to acceptance, debauchery, then it evolves into despair of life. When he realized that he could no longer go to tomorrow, he began to try various ways of suicide. However, no matter how hard I tried, the result was still opening my eyes in the same bed and room at 6 o'clock every morning, accompanied by the same music.
Of course, since it is related to love, the bridge of love is naturally indispensable. Realizing that he could do whatever he wanted regardless of the consequences, Pil began to use this repetitive point in time to pursue the show producer who he thought was like an angel. When Pil's ulterior motives and inferior methods failed to work, Pil began to understand. He is indeed a bitter, self-righteous bastard. So, after the last attempt to go to Huangquan with our groundhog failed, he began to re-examine himself.
So, he began to help others, began to learn piano, began to learn French, began to recite poetry, and began to learn ice sculpture... slowly, Pil made himself a polite gentleman and became the most popular place in this city of groundhogs. Welcome bachelor. This time, finally at a charity auction for singles, the beautiful producer Rita could no longer ignore the existence of pil and took the initiative to bid for our pil home...
When the camera fell on that nasty alarm clock again When I arrived, my mood was extremely nervous. When the 6 o'clock alarm sounded on time, I was pleasantly surprised to see Rita lying lazily beside Pil. Long live!!! The ending is so wonderful ^_^. Don't let Rita go, ^_^. Ha ha, don't laugh at me for being mentally retarded. In fact, everyone knows that there will be this ending, right?
It was too hasty to watch, but fortunately the movie still exists on the computer. Find out again when you have time. There are still many classic dialogues. But there is a question that is deeply imprinted in my mind: when your life is only left on the same day of the reciprocating cycle, what will you do? This question is very thought-provoking, just like the question "If you have only three days left in your life". In fact, from another perspective, everyone is doing the same thing more or less every day, but most people will only think of change when they are forced to a desperate situation. Most of them, even if they understand this truth, still repeat the past. Unfortunately, I am also one of them.
For similar stories, I recommend you to watch "Fifty First Dates" (Fifty First Dates). It's just that the protagonists in "Fifty First Love" are all too perfect. You may still prefer the pil-style story of the prodigal son turning back. As for acting skills, this film is more polished. Of course, Adam Sandler is indeed a genius. Haha, it's far away.

    The hero has been in this town for at least twenty years.

    7. This story tells us that if your life is only one day to live, you must spend this day on picking up girls, even under the guise of being kind, helpful, saving lives, etc., but the ultimate goal must be picking up girls. Otherwise you can't get salvation

Groundhog Day quotes

  • [repeated line]

    Diner Patron: Just put that anywhere, pal! Yeah! Good save!

  • Rita: [Phil has described several people in the diner] What about me, Phil? Do you know me too?

    Phil: I know all about you. You like producing, but you hope for more than Channel 9 Pittsburgh.

    Rita: Well, everyone knows that!

    Phil: You like boats, but not the ocean. You go to a lake in the summer with your family up in the mountains. There's a long wooden dock and a boathouse with boards missing from the roof, and a place you used to crawl underneath to be alone. You're a sucker for French poetry and rhinestones. You're very generous. You're kind to strangers and children, and when you stand in the snow you look like an angel.

    Rita: [in wonder] How are you doing this?

    Phil: I told you. I wake up every day, right here, right in Punxsutawney, and it's always February 2nd, and there's nothing I can do about it.
