I met Harold twenty years ago when he had become a friend of my family in Cook County, Illinois. We had a reception at the country club that Bushwood [Caddyshack] was based on and I had to assure him that his Jewish heritage wasn't a problem. He remained a friend throughout the remainder of his life and my dying mother received calls and gifts from Harold though he was very sick himself. What a beautiful man he was.

Although this is filmed rather cleverly, you may notice one of the stars is missing. Bill Murray and Harold Ramis had a huge fight and falling out near the end of making Groundhog Day. The last scenes were filmed by having a go between issue instructions to Murray and another go between take Murray's comments back to Ramis. Even though there was still a lot of animosity between the two men when this was made, it's not hard to see Ramis still had a soft spot in his heart for Murray. He knew that Murray's 15 year marriage was falling apart when the movie was being made, and Murray had started drinking heavily. Murray was always subject to mood swings, and those got worse over the course of the filming. Ramis was always willing to bury the hatchet with Murray but not the other way round. Ramis fell victim to one of the rarest disease you can get. He contracted an otherwise mild infection in 2010 and, for reasons medicine doesn't understand, his body reacted by having its immune system attack his own organs instead of the infection. It was severe enough that he lost the ability to walk. Doctors thought they had arrested the autoimmune inflammatory vasculitis that was the cause by 2011, and Ramis went through physical therapy to learn to walk again. He seemed to be fully recovered by the beginning of 2012. Unfortunately, the disease was only dormant and came back in 2013. It apparently was much more aggressive this time, and Ramis ended the fall of 2013 bedridden. It was likely this attack was going to be fatal, and Murray's brother, Brian Doyle Murray, visited him just before Christmas. He knew of their long falling out and urged his brother to end it before it was too late. Murray came the the Ramis house with a dozen donuts and an escort of Chicago police right after New Year's. Ramis had become friendly with the CPD after filming several movies in town and became kind of a cop buff, reportedly having a police scanner in his bedroom. At that point, Ramis was barely able to talk, but Ramis's daughter, Violet, said Murray did all the talking, reminiscing for several hours with Ramis. The terrible disease finally destroyed too many organs, and Ramis passed away peacefully at home on February 24, 2014. Realizing it was going to be five years since his all too early death, I was looking for this video again. It was one of the best at showing his gentle, kind personality. RIP, Harold, you were a great guy.

I loved the part at the end where Ramis recounts how followers of many spiritual traditions all resonated to the message of Groundhog Day. It’s one of the most ecumenical spiritual films ever made, and never tells you about spirituality. Instead it shows the viewer how it looks to be growing more spiritual. Harold Ramis seems like a lovely man, I would love to have known him.

Then he goes back to Paris, deals with his ex-girlfriend, and finally leaves for America.

I never get tired of watching reruns of Groundhog Day. It must be from watching Murray’s character’s dark side wither away and him going into the light. Great movie.
In my sophomore year at college we had a VCR that would automatically rewind the tape at the end and start playing again. This movie was left in the machine for weeks or perhaps more than a month and played over and over again automatically - 24 hours a day. Given the nature of the movie, you can understand how epic that was. My roommates had a great sense of humor.

Groundhog Day is in my top 10 list of favorite movies of all time. I have watched it something in the region of twenty times. I watch it when I'm feeling sad, I can enjoy it when I'm elated. It gives me perspective when I feel jaded - and hope when there are problems. It's a movie that we should all see multiple times. It's a shining masterpiece. When you see some of the politically biased, sanctimonious films that have come out in the last 30 years. Movies that only serve to make us angry and divided - and promote an agenda - I can always watch Groundhog Day and feel better about myself and my fellow citizens.
