Groundhog Day (1993)
This '90s classic starts out like any rom-com. Phil Connors (played by Bill Murray) is a haughty local news reporter from Pittsburgh. He's forced to cover the annual Groundhog Day celebration in Punxsutawney, Penn., much to his chagrin. His disdain for the "hick" town and its people gets him stuck in a time loop, where he's forced to relive his miserable February 2 over and over again, anchored by waking up to Sonny & Cher's "I Got You Babe" every morning. Even worse? He's the only person who is aware that there's a stuck time loop.
Eventually, Connors breaks the spell by accepting his fate and embracing all that Punxsutawney has to offer. He gives the best broadcast ever on the umpteenth morning of February 2, bewildering his producer Rita (played by Andie MacDowell) with his seemingly overnight transformation. They promptly fall in love, and wake up on February 3, together.

Wait a minute, I think I've heard this before.
Groundhog Day (1993)
Well, if we're doomed to write up the same movie over and over again, I guess we can just start making stuff up?
"Groundhog Day" is about a vengeful groundhog (played by Andy Serkis) who sells his soul to the devil, in order to turn his evil owner Hal (played by Bill Murray), into a clock. The only thing Hal hates more than groundhogs is personified timepieces, because his least favorite movie is "Beauty and the Beast." You'd watch that, right?
