Live the same day over and over? What would you do???
Palm Springs | 2020
Blurb
In the time of lockdown and feeling like we do the same thing everyday this is the film to watch and chuckle along with. The rom-com gives us witty writing, fun sets, 80’s/90’s inspired costumes, a lively soundtrack, good acting, and creative ideas for what to do in a time loop. Watch, laugh, and forget for a moment we are still in the land of CVID! Pair the movie with chips & salsa and a big fruity cocktail + umbrellas!!!
