Premonition

Yesterday, while looking for the explanation of the word premonition I came across the title of the film, called exactly like this "Premonition" and decided to watch it.

It is about Linda Hanson (Sandra Bullock) who is going about her daily chores when a police officer arrives at her door to inform her that her husband, Jim (Julian McMahon), has been killed in a car accident. Linda is devastated and must inform her young daughters, Megan (Shyann McClure) and Bridgett (Courtney Taylor Burness). Her mother (Kate Nelligan) arrives to help out. By nightfall, Linda is exhausted and, grief-stricken, she curls up on the couch and falls asleep. She awakens the next morning to discover that not only is Jim alive but the calendar has been peeled back from Thursday to Monday. Gradually, as the days and nights pass, Linda discovers that she is no longer living life in a linear fashion. Instead of her days progressing sequentially from Sunday to Saturday, they are jumbled up, with the fulcrum being the day of Jim's death. Knowing what happens, can she stop the accident? Should she stop it?

I highly recommend this movie, as I found it very mysterious and interesting.
