The legend that is Bill Murray is 60, to Bill
Funny and sad, reclusive and ubiquitous, the star of Lost In Translation and the star of Garfield: A Tail Of Two Kitties. Bill Murray has spent most of his adult life being several things at once. But soon Bill Murray will turn 60 and, to mark this important milestone, the Guardian has uncovered 60 fascinating Bill Murray facts. So happy birthday, Bill Murray: just donât expect another of these when youâre 70 âŚ
1 Bill Murray was born William James Murray on 21 September 1950, which isnât really that interesting. These get better, promise.
2 Bill Murray had originally planned a career as a doctor, although he left university after being arrested for possession of marijuana. Truly, medicineâs loss was ruefully existential arthouse cinemaâs gain.
3 Bill Murray is notoriously hard to pin down. If you want him to star in your film, you have to call his infrequently checked answering machine and wait for him to get back.
4 As a consequence of this, he has missed out on roles in films like Monsters Inc, Charlie And The Chocolate Factory and Who Framed Roger Rabbit.
5 But he was in Space Jam, so thatâs something.
6 Bill Murray was the singer in a band called the Dutch Masters as a teenager.
7 Whatâs more, he once played guitar onstage with Eric Clapton.
8 During a tandem skydive over Chicago in 2008, Bill Murray managed to play air guitar and perform a brief hand jive before the parachute deployed.
9 Banzaiâs Mr Shake Hands Man once shook Bill Murrayâs hand for 89.4 seconds.
10 Bill Murray was pulled over by Swedish police on suspicion of driving a golf cart under the influence of alcohol.
11 Bill Murray remains the only actor to have starred in both Hamlet and Charlieâs Angels in the same year.
12 Bill Murray says that he only agreed to make Garfield because he thought the script was written by the Coen Brothers. It wasnât. It was written by Joel Cohen, the man who wrote Daddy Day Camp.
13 Although that didnât stop him from making Garfield: A Tail Of Two Kitties, did it? Numpty.
14 Oklahoma! is Bill Murrayâs favourite musical.
15 Bill Murray thinks Kung Fu Hustle is âthe supreme achievement of the modern age in terms of comedyâ.
16 Bill Murray has weird taste.
17 Bill Murrayâs constant mood swings led Dan Aykroyd to give him the nickname âThe Murricaneâ.
18 The Murricane is also a cocktail, named in Bill Murrayâs honour, containing bourbon, basil, elderflower, watermelon and pepper.
19 Surely that tastes disgusting.
20 In 1997, Bill Murray was named as the 82nd best movie star ever in an Empire magazine list.
21 Bill Murray once wrote a book called Cinderella Story: My Life In Golf.
22 One Amazon review of it contains the word âgarbageâ repeated 20 times in a row.
23 Never confuse Bill Murray with Billy Murray from the Injury Lawyers 4 U adverts.
24 A recording of Bill Murray performing Roxy Musicâs More Than This is a hidden track on the Lost In Translation soundtrack album. God knows why.
25 Bill Murrayâs final inaudible whisper to Scarlett Johansson at the end of Lost In Translation is one of cinemaâs greatest-ever mysteries.
26 In 2007, a digital remaster discovered that he appeared to say, âI have to be leaving, but I wonât let that come between us, OK?â
27 Other popular theories include, âCan I say something thatâs eating me? Go to that man and tell him the truth, OK?â And, âKeep away from Woody Allen. Iâm the only creepy old man you should be hanging around with, OK?â
28 In 2006, Bill Murray crashed a party held by some Norwegian students in Scotland, told a few jokes, washed up and then left.
29 This is almost identical to the plot of Lost In Translation, except it was colder and there was slightly more focus on kitchen hygiene.
30 Bill Murrayâs appearance in Zombieland has been cited in reviews as one of the funniest celebrity cameos of all time.
31 That said, itâs only really funny if youâre not expecting it. So if you havenât already seen it, just disregard point 30.
32 There is a fake Bill Murray on Twitter.
33 Most of his tweets seem to link to websites where you can illegally stream bad movies, though, so donât bother clicking that link.
34 Bill Murray was considered for the roles of both Han Solo and Batman, which would have either been brilliant or horrible.
35 But probably horrible.
36 The world leader who Bill Murray most accurately resembles is poisoned former Ukrainian president Viktor Yushchenko.
37 Earlier this year Bill Murray cut his head while diving into a water-filled skip for a TV show.
38 Bill Murray landed his Ghostbusters role when John Belushi â the first choice to play Peter Venkman â died.
39 In fact, the parts of the four Ghostbusters were originally written for Belushi, Eddie Murphy, John Candy and Christopher Walken. The involvement of these actors would have made Ghostbusters much worse.
40 Apart from Christopher Walken, obviously.
41 A third Ghostbusters film is set to be made soon, although Bill Murray has variously called it âmy nightmareâ and âa bunch of crockâ and will only take part if Peter Venkman dies early on.
42 Lorenzo Music voiced the Bill Murray character in the Ghostbusters cartoon. And Bill Murray voiced the Lorenzo Music character in the Garfield film.
43 Itâs said that Bill Murray likes to sneak up behind strangers in New York, whisper, âGuess who?â And, when they turn around, tell them: âNo one will ever believe you.â
44 Presumably he leaves before they can tell their friends that poisoned former Ukrainian president Viktor Yushchenko just snuck up behind them.
45 Bill Murrayâs sister is a nun.
46 Bill Murray and his brothers own a Florida restaurant called Murray Bros Caddy Shack. Its slogan is Eat, Drink & Be Murray.
47 The restaurantâs firecracker shrimp is said to be delicious, although some reviewers have bemoaned a lack of attention to detail when it comes to the side orders.
48 For a recent film festival in Lodz, Bill Murray learned how to say âI love you, may I borrow some money?â in flawless Polish.
49 Bill Murray once created a game called shotgun golf with Hunter S Thompson. It was basically golf, but with more shotguns. It never caught on.
50 Gorillaz once recorded a B-side entitled Bill Murray. It wasnât very good.
51 In 2007 Bill Murray grew a moustache. It also wasnât very good.
52 During the filming of 1993âs Mad Dog And Glory, Bill Murray accidentally broke Robert De Niroâs nose.
53 In Groundhog Day, Bill Murray repeated the same day countless times in order to win Andie MacDowellâs heart. To this day, it remains the most amount of effort that any film character has expended for such a comparatively meagre reward.
54 During the filming of Groundhog Day, Bill Murray was asked to hire an assistant to act as a buffer between him and the studio. He deliberately hired a deaf mute who could only communicate in Native American sign language.
55 There is a website that tells you how to make your Nintendo Mii avatar look like Bill Murray, Peter Venkman and Steve Zissou.
56 At least three different people have Steve Zissou tattoos.
57 Bill Murray has only ever seen the final episode of Seinfeld, and he didnât think much of that.
58 Bill Murrayâs next film is Passion Play, starring Mickey Rourke as a sad trumpet player. It is apparently not a comedy.
59 Bill Murray doesnât have a publicist.
60 In Coffee And Cigarettes, the Wu-Tang Clan make a point of always calling Bill Murray by his full name. This is a fun game to play.
wtf? why even post that?
FOAD :rolleyes:
No 43 is tremendous if true.
Bill Murray is a legend alright(his collaberation with Jarmusch, Broken Flowers was on the BBC earlier, superb flick) but everyone knows that the greatest actor of all time was Geoge C Scott.
You can lock this thread now Dunph man.
Honourable mention - Richard Harris B)
Bill Murray once appeared at the Cat Laughs festival in about 1997 - apparently I was at it, but I was so drunk I canât remember any of it, my loss by all accounts.
Woody Harrelson is fast becoming one of my favourite actors.
Russell Crowe.
