#368 - Groundhog Day (1993)
Description
Subject: Groundhog Day (1993)
Observers: John Pavlich, Tysto
Record Date: January 27, 2018, 02:54 PM
Plot Summary: A self-centered, TV weatherman is trapped in a small town, where he is forced to repeat the same day again and again until he gets it right.
Note: Tysto returns to reevaluate this comedy classic from the late Harold Ramis. We talk about repeating days in genre fiction, groundhogs, existential evolution through trial and error, dark comedy and the moral quandary of using a time loop to manipulate people for information. Remember to listen for the preemptive countdown before starting the film on your DVD.
