Groundhog Day (1993)

This movie was about a Pittsburgh TV weatherman who was a conceited jerk. He's asked to do a news report on Punxsutawney Phil on Groundhog's Day (a task he deemed below him). The day goes really poorly and he gets stuck in Punxsutawney for an extra night because of a terrible snow storm. When he wakes up the "next day", he repeats exactly the events of the day before, a perpetual Groundhog Day. He tries all types of things to escape the endless Groundhog Day, such as killing himself, but nothing works. He eventually turns a new leaf and becomes a generous, conceintious citizen and fallens in love with his TV producer. Only then is he released from the endless Groundhog day. I liked this movie, it was lighthearted and funny. I'd definitely watch it again!
