I learned something new about a book that I had no idea had a deeper meaning. The movie Groundhog Day has bigger meaning then I imagined.

Phils way of acting in the beginning reminded me of attitude meursault had in opening of his story evil and uncaring. When Phil goes to…
only breathe 16 times per minute. I am brown and furry and live in a burrow. Can you guess who I am? I am Punxsutawney Phil! On February 2nd of every year, I am celebrated all around the world. My holiday is Groundhog Day; however, my holiday has not always been called Groundhog Day. It was originally called Gobbler’s Knob.That is actually an insulting name for a holiday. Even though I am fat and furry, it is not nice to say you are going to gobble me up! I guess it is pretty cool to…
over and over again? Phil Connors (Bill Murray) can relate with the 1993 film “Groundhog Day”.

Phil is a stuck up guy, that only worries about his own problems and doesn’t think about how he is affecting other people’s lives. Phil, a weatherman, is sent on assignment to cover the annual Groundhog Day festivities in Punxsutawney, Pennsylvania. After visiting…
Imagine living for 130 years because of my magical potion. Hi, I am Punxsutawney Phil, and this is what I will do before Groundhog’s Day After living for so long, I have picked up a thing or two about us groundhogs and Groundhog’s day.

We dig extremely complex tunnels nearby fences, hedgerows, houses, trees, and other types of cover. Not me, live in a library full…
The Noble Eightfoldpath portrayed in the film Groundhog Day and compare that to Buddhism as discussed in this course. In doing so, I use examples from the film and class readings to make points about my analysis. I chose this film because I this is one of my favorite old films that never fail to make me laugh.

the wrong prediction? Will they hate me for it? I just have to stay serene and think for a second. People love me for what I do. I am an icon in this town, even though they take me out too gobbler's knob each year on February, 2. Besides why did Groundhogs day have to be on February, 2 couldn't it just be on my own time. It…

A fresh start, is like a blank paper, if you ever dirty it you can always get a new one . In fact i have actually had a fresh…
