Ugh, just read an article, but can't find it, but this is close:

http://beforeitsnews.com/international/2010/02/in-depth-with-groundhog-days-stephen-tobolowsky-17159.html

Stephen: They [director Harold Ramis and writer Danny Rubin] used, I think, the list of Kübler-Ross, the seven stages of death and dying, a very popular book in the 70s. These [include] recognition, denial, depression, anger, acceptance. They used that as a framework, but Harold Ramis, who’s also a Buddhist, said that in Buddhism they say that it takes 10,000 years for a soul to evolve to the next level.


The original article I read, said it a bit differently, but that was the gist...

I've spent several hours looking, lol....

Sorry for the let down....

I was just thinking how awesome it would be if they announced a sequel to Groundhog Day and then just re-released the original movie. :laugh: It would be funny, but it would also expose a new generation to an amazing film.
