In An endless daycult American comedy released in 1993, Bill Murray Tirelessly lives on the same 24 hours. And not just any: that of the “Marmot Day”, also called Groundhog Day in the United States. If this detailed tradition in the comic film From Harold Ramis may seem surprising, it is however inspired by a real event.
The day of the marmot is indeed celebrated in the United States and Canada, and more specifically in Punxsutawney, on February 2. As we can see in An endless dayseveral traditions are honored during this singular festival. The highlight remains to observe the marmot entry into its burrow. Depending on its behavior, legend says that winter will last more or less long. If the film with Bill Murray democratizes this singular tradition, the shooting was not made in Punxsutawney. It is in Woodstock, in the State of Illinois, that the cameras of Harold Ramis were posed to immortalize several scenes today become cult!
Synopsis – Phil Connors, presenter of the weather on television, is the victim of a spell and is condemned to relive indefinitely the same day, that of February 2, day of the Marmotte Festival, Groundhog Day
