12. 5.03 A higher power?

The MoMA in New York is currently showing a film exhibit entitled "The Hidden God: Film and Faith." Movies with "hidden" spiritually themes are explored, including films by Ingmar Bergman, Robert Bresson, Roberto Rossellini. And then there's Groundhog Day. As most people know Groundhog Day is the movie where Bill Murray plays an arrogant weatherman who has to repeat the same day over and over until he does selfless good acts for others. Evidently the film has been embraced by Hasidic Jews, Jesuits, and Buddhists as excellent way to explain their beliefs. "Dali? Dali Llama? Dali Llama, I thought that was you! Now don't you tell me you don't remember me 'cause I sure as heckfire remember you!"
