With just over 40% of the vote, the Bill Murray/Andie McDowell comedy Groundhog Day was selected as the 1990s movie I should watch next. Something I learned today which fascinated me is that Groundhog Day was added to the U.S. National Film Registry in 2006 as being deemed "culturally, historically, or aesthetically significant." Damn... I didn't know it was like that! Click here so you can see that Groundhog Day is in esteemed company. I plan on watching Groundhog Day within the next month. Once I do, I will post my review here.
Here are the final poll results:
Groundhog Day- 43%
The Big Lebowski- 31%
American Beauty- 12%
Pump Up the Volume and Sling Blade- 9% each
Magnolia- 4%
Thanks to everyone who let their voice be heard in this poll!
Great movie! Useless trivia: Watch for the scene when they are stopped on the freeway during a blizzard. It was filmed about a mile from where I worked for 10 years (in Illinois). Much of the movie was filmed in IL. The same <3 mile long freeway was used for scenes in The Blues Brothers and Batman Begins.

ReplyDeleteDave: There is no such thing as useless trivia! Just kidding. I'll look for the scene you mentioned.
