We Love the Love

Groundhog Day


Listen Later

We're celebrating a beloved American holiday by looking at the romance of Harold Ramis's 1993 classic, Groundhog Day!

Join in as we discuss the film's iconic status in the time loop canon, the 1993 Saturn Awards, Andie MacDowell's film debut in Greystoke: The Legend of Tarzan, and typical Bill Murray production stories.

Plus: How did screenwriter Danny Rubin land on the idea of a time loop? How long was Phil caught in the loop? How much did he spend on his last day? And, most importantly, which holiday mascot would be easiest to kidnap?

Make sure to rate, review, and subscribe!

Next week: The Shack (2017)
