Groundhog Day (1993) with Kim Last
Show notes
Jack and Nora are joined by actor Kim Last to discuss #8 on Vanity Fair’s list of the 42 Best Romantic Comedies of All Time: Groundhog Day. In this episode, Nora loves to chill, Kim is a glitter bomb about to detonate, and Jack watched the director’s commentary. Rob a bank (or don’t), order one of everything on the menu, and let’s do this all again!
Topics include:
- Bridgerton bringing back the word "rake"
- Morality and spirituality when you’re stuck in a time loop
- Crying over X-Men (2000)
–
Mysteries we still haven’t solved:
- Are we going to hell?
- Which Bill Murray shower scene is more iconic - Groundhog Day or Lost in Translation (2003)?
–
Content Warning: A quick heads up from us - this episode contains discussions of suicide, in relation to plot points in the film.
