Everyday so many movies come out. I love lots of choices and enjoy variety. On the other hand when I have too many choices I am going to be impulsive very easily. It makes to find me more difficult the great one. I haven’t seen a really great movie since I watched The Shawshank Reademption, 1944. Also I am pretty picky about great movies that must have good stories and correct castings and suitable music.
Yesterday I discovered a great movie that actually I already knew this movie. One day my friend and I talked about what was the greatest movies in our lives. He strongly recommended this movie. I thought it would be a too old style move and one of many ordinary romantic comedy movies. I also was not interested in the leading actor. That’s why I avoided watching it several times. However after watching I realized how great this movie was! EUREKA!
The story was a weather guy who is very selfish and apathetic and cynical. He went to another place for work before previous Groundhog Day. After work he wanted to leave immediately but he couldn’t do it. Because there was lots of snow so he was stuck that place. He decided to stay there one more day. He didn’t expect what would be an unbelievable situation to him until the next morning. Can you imagine that everyday is the same day and than the next morning everything restarts? When It happened to him the first time he didn’t believe this situation. On the other hand he was very excited. He tried to do many things that he never tried in his normal life such as, stealing a car and money, hitting on women. Nevertheless he was getting depressed very quickly. He tried to commit suicide four times and he tried to explain his situation to his boss. But nobody could change anything. So he changed his mind attitude that he started to spend his time for valuable things. For example he enjoyed developing himself and helping other people. Finally people loved him and he fell in love with his boss.
These days when I wake up I feel exactly the same feeling like the groundhog day’s guy. I meet the same people and live the same routine day. I have never thought I can spend this happy a moment for helping other people. I’m also lazy for developing myself. This movie gave to me lots of lessons. Why don't you see this movie your family or friends this weekend?
Exactly, I always feel like helping other people, but it never happens. Maybe I'm too selfish.
ReplyDeleteI think everyone is plagued with feelings of being "stuck in a routine" at some point... however... every breath is a true miracle, and every moment is truly new, it's WHAT we make it!
ReplyDeleteI definitely want to see this movie again now! Thanks for the reminder.
