Just in time for Punxsutawney Phil’s 122nd Groundhog Day prognostication on February 2nd, Sony Pictures Home Entertainment unleashes the Bill Murray comedy classic, Groundhog Day, as a Special Edition, 15th Anniversary DVD on January 29 for the suggested retail price of $19.94. The Groundhog Day: 15th Anniversary Special Edition DVD, digitally re-mastered under the supervision of Harold Ramis, arrives with newly-discovered deleted scenes, three featurettes including “The Study of Groundhogs: A Real Life Look at Marmots”, “A Different Day: An Interview with Harold Ramis,” and a making-of documentary, as well as a running commentary by Ramis. Synopsis:Bill Murray is at his wry, wisecracking best in this riotous romantic comedy about a weatherman caught in a personal time warp on the worst day of his life. Teamed with a relentlessly cheerful producer (Andie MacDowell) and a smart-aleck cameraman (Chris Elliott), TV weatherman Phil Connors (Bill Murray) is sent to Punxsutawney , Pennsylvania, to cover the annual Groundhog Day festivities. But on his way out of town, Phil is caught in a giant blizzard, which he failed to predict, and finds himself stuck in small-town hell. Just when things couldn't get worse, they get worse; Phil wakes the next morning to find it's Groundhog Day all over again... and again... and again. Groundhog Day was cheered by critics as Bill Murray's best movie ever. Originally released in 1993, Groundhog Day was produced, written and directed by Harold Ramis from a story by Trevor Albert. The film stars Bill Murray, Andie MacDowell, Chris Elliot and Stephen Tobolowsky.
