* I'M ALIVE AND WELL - HAPPY GROUNDHOG DAY *

I can't believe it's February 2021 and in a few hours, it will be Groundhog Day! I've posted before about the movie, with Bill Murray and Andie MacDowell. I just love this movie for so many reasons. Bill Murray's character is such a jerk in the first half or so of the movie, and then a transformation comes over him...because of what/who? Have you seen the movie? I've seen it a zillion times and it never gets old. 

HAPPY GROUNDHOG DAY!

"Okay, campers, rise and shine, and don't forget your booties

 'cause it's cold out there today."

"Hey now, don't you tell me you don't remember me 'cause

 I sure as heckfire remember you."



"NEEDLE-NOSE NED?...NED RYERSON?" ..... "BING!"

"IT'S SO BEAUTIFUL! ..... LET'S LIVE HERE!"

(P.S. I know this song is not used in the movie, 

but I love the music and lyrics, and it's perfect for the ending. 

Bill Murray's character is finally set free....when he realized love was the answer.)

* NOSTALGIC SUNDAY *

It's Time For Another Nostalgic Sunday

 

 

I watched one of my favorite Christmas movies

a day or two ago. No...it wasn't A Christmas Carol, although I do love this musical version the best: Scrooge, with Albert Finney. (1971)

 

 

Love, love, love it!

 

 

 

 

And, no it wasn't It's a Wonderful Life, or Christmas Story, or Christmas Vacation, or White Christmas, or The Bishop's Wife, Home Alone, The Polar Express, A Charlie Brown Christmas, Miracle on 34th Street (the original 1947), The Family Stone, Christmas in Connecticut, or Meet Me in St. Louis. Whew....I think that's most of my favorites, but I'll also throw in, Trading Places and While You Were Sleeping, because they take place during Christmas time and I want to include them!

 

 

 

No, the one I watched was Scrooged, with Bill Murray! (1988)

I can't say how many times I've seen this movie;

let's just say countless!

There are so many scenes that crack me up

and I laugh out loud every single time...one in particular: at the restaurant when Frank (Bill Murray) thinks he sees a real eyeball in his drink and starts screaming and pointing at it. The way the camera goes from the drink to his face, and to the others' faces...Classic!

 

Love, love, love it!

 

 

What are some of YOUR favorite Christmas movies?

Or old TV shows' Christmas episodes?

Put a Little Love in Your Heart

(from Scrooged soundtrack)

 

"Think of your fellow man, lend him a helping hand
Put a little love in your heart
You see, it's getting late, oh, please don't hesitate
Put a little love in your heart"

 

 

* GROUNDHOG DAY *

(This is a repeat from a 2010 blog post, with just a couple of tweaks. I LOVE this movie and it just seems appropriate to repeat it, repeat it.....ba-dum-dum!)

And now, a few words and photos from one of my favorite movies: "Groundhog Day", starring Bill Murray and Andie MacDowell.

"Okay, campers, rise and shine, and don't forget your booties 'cause it's cold out there today."

"Do you ever have déjà vu, Mrs. Lancaster?"
"I don't think so, but I could check with the kitchen."

"Hey now, don't you tell me you don't remember me 'cause I sure as heckfire remember you."



"NEEDLE-NOSE NED?...NED RYERSON?" ..... "BING!"
