In the movie Groundhog Day, Phil needs to get something right, whatever that is. He is a very bored of the fact he has to do the same assignment of covering the Groundhog Day ceremony year after year. After the report he wasn’t to get home as soon as possible but a blizzard comes. As a weatherman, he didn’t predict this storm. Now, he is stuck in Punxsutawney for longer than he would wish. The twist of the story is when he wakes up the next and it’s still Groundhog Day. This happens for a couple days until he figures out what he needs to do to make it a new day.

The event of talking to Rita and trying to save the old beggar helps he realize he needs to change. He tries helping the beggar from dying by giving him food but he wasn’t successful. The next time, he tries doing CPR on him but sadly that doesn’t work. He ends up trying to find out every little detail of this girl named Rita. Rita was his co-worker and a girl he never cared about before. By the end he falls in love with Rita.

He makes a lot of choices to try to get back on the normal routine of day after day instead of the same day everyday. He does suicides, drunk driving, running away from police, driving over cliffs, and most of all kidnapping the beloved groundhog. But theses choice didn’t change a thing.
