Groundhog Day
Hailed by the Guardian as being ‘the perfect comedy’, Harold Ramis’s (Ghostbusters, Animal House) Groundhog Day is a mad and brilliant comedy. It's quite possibly Bill Murray's best role in a career defined by playing men who are suspicious of joy and a maybe little smarter than those around them.
