W. Lawless discussed the movie "Groundhog Day" for its representation of
the fantasy of reliving the past to review and revise it.  He asked:

Monty Python did a bit where Michail Palin was locked in a deja vu or
cyclical state.  It was funny, like Groundhog Day, and also upsetting, like
Groundhog Day.
