Happy 20th anniversary of the movie "Groundhog Day."

Groundhog Day used to mean something in this town
Phil Connors: This is pitiful. A thousand people freezing their butts off waiting to worship a rat. What a hype. Groundhog Day used to mean something in this town. They used to pull the hog out, and they used to eat it. You’re hypocrites, all of you!

You're missin' all the fun!

These people are great! Some of them have been partyin’ all night long! They sing songs ’till they get too cold and then they go sit by the fire and they get warm, and then they come back and sing some more!

Winter, slumbering in the open air, wears on its smiling face a dream... of spring. Ciao.

It was filmed in 1992.

I live in Woodstock where they filmed it. They are celebrating it as the 20th anniversary.
