the groundhog day project

robert e g black

covering one minute of the film "groundhog day" every friday, but sometimes having to include bonus episodes so progress will be slow and deliberate. exploring topics related to philosophy, filmmaking, religion, and the meaning of life, this show used to be part of an existential trilogy, but that no longer.
