Bill Murray Movies
About once a month (usually the last Tuesday of the month), I will do a top 3 on a specific person, whether it be director, actor, producer, writer, etc. If you didn't gather from the title, this post is on Bill Murray. Bill Murray has been in many movies that all pretty consistently make me laugh. In addition to being funny, they have a value to them that makes them enjoyable to watch over and over again. Bill Murray, has almost three eras of films: the early years with Meatballs and Caddyshack, the middle years with Ghostbusters and Groundhog Day, and the later years with Royal Tennenbaums and Lost in Translation. And we cant forget the sellout years with movies like Garfield. (BLEHHH). This was a tough one for me to name because I always enjoy his films. The later years really didn't do it for me, so you wont see any of those films here. However, I want to give honorable mention to two films that he had small parts in, but still made an unwatchable movie actually entertaining. As a masochistic dental patient, he absolutely killed it in Little Shop of Horrors (Side Note: this role was actually played by Jack Nicholson in an early version of this film in 1960. One of Nicholson's first films.) As arrogant bowling champion Ernie McCracken in Kingpin.
