I feel sorry for Bill Murray


Today the only movies he's in are really crappy kid movies. He's that generation of comedic actors from the seventies through to the nineties that are only seen in crappy movies nowadays (Steve Martin, John Cleese, Dan Ackroyd, the list goes on).

Lost in Translation, The Life Aquatic, Broken Flowers... I think he's doing just fine.

"Made it, ma! Top of the world!"
James Cagney, White Heat

Well, he is building a career as a character actor. Don't forget, he got a Oscar nod for Lost in Translation (should've won) and should've been nominated again for Broken Flowers. Wild Things is another film you should check out, with him as a lawyer.

Funny you should mention that. My dad took me to see Ghostbusters, which co-starred the great Bill Murray. Also, the day my father died in 1994, I got the latest issue of Entertainment Weekly and there was a picture of Bill in it. I had known his dad had died when he was young and I said to myself, "Well, Bill, now we have something in common. Both our dads died when we were young."
