Tomorrow? What if there is no tomorrow? There wasn't today!

Groundhog Day is one of my favorite comedies, and really deserves more consideration when people as me what my favorite movie is (they ask for a single choice, but always get a list of 3-5, which varies depending on how I'm feeling when you ask it - too many good movies to just pick one!) If you haven't seen Groundhog Day go watch it now.

Since yesterday was Groundhog Day I watched about half the movie before I got too tired and had to give it up. The premise here is just so great. What do you do if you have one day to live over and over again, with no consequences? Phil starts off like most of us would, living it up, being irresponsible. But he soon becomes bored since his life has no substance. Think about it, the only thing you can take from day to day is your own experiences. You can't accomplish anything that takes longer then a day, and you can't share any experiences with others past a day. The whole concept it just wonderful.

It's funny and heartwarming, and is clever with it's pacing and how much of each day it shows. All in all, one of my favorite movies.
