So, for the first time tonight, during the umpteenth time of watching Groundhog Day (which is an excellent, excellent movie, by the by), my wife pointed out that it features two songs from other time warp/travel movies, namely Rachmaninoff's Rhapsody on a Theme of Paganini, which forms the basis for John Barry's score for Somewhere in Time (one of my wife's favorite films, which while interesting, I find incredibly creepy) and Almost Like Being in Love, which is Gene Kelly's big song from Brigadoon.
I wonder if there's any more time movie references in there. Anyone catch another?
Oh, and Groundhog Day? Highly recommended. 5 stars.
I had a feeling GroundHog Day was “derivative.” Hey bartender–drinks all around–HA!
