True, but sometimes he’s the exact guy for the role. “Groundhog Day”, “Scrooged”, “The Man Who Knew Too Little”, “Kingpin” and of course “Caddyshack”.
I lived in college towns for much of my younger life and got to know a lot of graduate students.
Bill Murray might have inherited some of the European comedy cachet that Jerry Lewis had with the French.
I knew a young woman from Amsterdam, and three young men, from Germany, Hungary, and Bulgaria, who all thought that Bill Murray was brilliant!
Groundhog Day was his best role.
