What if you had to keep living the same day over and over-and over-again--until you got it right? It happens to Bill Murray as a conceited, obnoxious Pittsburgh weatherman in this "lovable and sweet" (New York Daily News) hit comedy. In Punxsutawney, Pa., to cover Groundhog Day, he treats everyone badly, including pretty producer Andie MacDowell.
