Time has always been a very interesting film theme, and there are many interesting embodiments in film works, from time travel, time stop to time loop, filmmakers have brought many fantastic film and television works to the audience through their own brain holes.
Today's sharing fungus brings you a more heart-warming movie "Groundhog Day", which is produced by Columbia Pictures, directed by Harold Remis, and starring Bill Murray and Andy McDowell.
The film tells the story of Phil, a weather announcer, who, after encountering a snowstorm on a mission, stayed the day before but could not take another step forward, and began his repeated life.
The film repeatability of this time loop is still very high, especially the plot where the protagonist has just found himself in the time loop. The film "Edge of Tomorrow" starring Tom Cruise and the film "Source Code" starring Jack Gyllenhaal are films with this time cycle, and unlike this film, these two films have obvious tasks, that is, the protagonist must save the world or save a person on the train, while "Groundhog Day" has no clear purpose and the plot is more open.

Through the fantasy experience of the protagonist Phil, the film allows us to see the various emotions hidden in the hearts of human beings, we are like him, we have experienced a lot of things, struggling in society, Phil hates stupidity this groundhog day, hates his life. And in reality, we all hate everything in our lives in our hearts.
Phil gains his salvation through this farce, but people living in the real world are still hiding their hearts and disgusted by unsatisfactory experiences in the world.
In fact, we are no different from the protagonist Phil, we go to work or school day after day and it is not "groundhog day", but we do not change ourselves like Phil, do not help others, do not help ourselves, and live in society without doing anything.
In fact, there are many times when changes do not need to be grand pomp and circumstance, do not need to be careful with the posture of mind, only in a flash, it is just a simple idea. This idea can take you to different places.
As the characters in the film say, the cup is different in the eyes of different people, whether the cup is half empty or half full depends entirely on yourself, and your life may have a beauty that you have not yet discovered.
The difference is how you see tomorrow, whether it's half-empty (every day it repeats) or half-full (every day is a new day).
