Groundhog Day was an interesting film that introduced the life of a television reporter, who was stuck living the same day over and over again. I believe that i would have felt the same way as he did, enjoying the fact that he gets to make his mistakes right, but after a while of the same process i think i too would have been frustrated and angry. He did a number of crazy things througout the film to take advantage of his situation, such as trying to gain the trust and love of his boss. The problem was that he has not changed and was still trying to get over on people and as much as he tried to cheat to gain her love he continued to fail. It was only towards the end of the film that he gained her love after he replaced all his negatives with positives and began to lead a better life.
I made a number of references with this film from a religious aspect. I noticed that the the reliving of groundhog day could possibly symbolize the idea of reincarnation, eternal life, or cyclical form of life. i also noticed how he began to try to play the role of god by saving peoples lives just as he did with the little boy falling out of the tree. My idea of the movie was positive and i believe that he needed to repeat the same day in order to realize that he needed a change of life.
