I read an article about the whole concept and they suggested he may have been there for thousands of years.

This is one of my favorite movies since it first came out. Others have said they thought it was just a comedy when they were younger but came to view it differently as they aged.

Will see it again tonight on the big screen. It’s one of the best blu-ray transfers.

In the original script it had him reading a page a day from books in the library and by the end he had read them all.

Hey, I got you babe!

I like the song, but listening to it for thousands of mornings? No wonder he tried to kill himself a bunch of times.

The correct answer is ONE DAY. That day kept repeating and he remembered his experience of it but then that day happened over again as if starting with a clean slate so no actual time elapsed other than the 24 hours of that ONE DAY.

You only live once, but if you do it right, once is enough.--Mae West (of all people)

I always think of that line when I see this movie. It takes Murray's character thousands of days to get it right, but he finally learns from his mistakes and all the pain. Starting out as a shallow, egotistical, hedonistic boor, his character is finally molded into a decent human being.

30 to 40 years seems about right. He went from an awful piano player to a great player.

I thought it was maybe hundreds of years.

He studied one day at a time to become a doctor.

He became a great jazz pianist.

He spent 6 months flipping cards into a hat.

He spent years learning how to ice sculpt.

He spent months or years trying to seduce the girl, getting one line closer to success at a time. Then that failed. It only succeeded when he started working on himself and didn’t try for the girl but to perfect himself.

He spent decades learning everything that happened in that town that day, learning everything about every inhabitant, he knew the number of steps to make to catch a kid falling out of a tree, change a tire, steal a bag of money, save the old wino’s life.

He spent months trying to kill himself.

He spent months or years learning French and French literature.

Yeah, it was at least a century.
