50 First Dates
Today we are talking about 50 First Dates, the 2004 film starring Drew Barrymore and Adam Sandler about Adam’s character, Henry, who is afraid of commitment until he meets Lucy who is repeating the same day over and over again due to a head injury. The film that Sandler dedicated to film to his father who died while the film was in production. The inspiration for the film was taken from Harold Ramis’ romantic comedy, Groundhog Day.
Henry: Appreciate your time. Not everybody would have stopped like you. You’re real sweet.
Lucy: Oh, yeah. Thank you.
Henry: Okay.
Lucy: Okay.
[Henry pretends to get electrocuted while jump-starting his car]
Henry: Hah! I can’t believe you fell for that!
Lucy: Well… my grandfather died while trying to jump-start a car…
Henry: Oh… I’m so sorry. I was just joking around.
Lucy: I can’t believe you fell for THAT!
