Bill Murray off camera...

Who else thinks that Bill Murray seems like a very friendly and approachable person? He is one of my favorite actors and I would really like to meet him.

He's a really nice guy off camera and really funny (go figure)

I used to work for a small airline and he flew it once, he said something about his wife being drunk and should fly, can't remember exactly what but yeah funny nice guy.

Haha, he once showed up at a college party randomly because he saw it and partied with them and then left.

A dick doesn't go and boost moral at a movie set he isn't in any way involved in because the lead (Gene Hackman) was being a dick himself to the cast of The Royal Tenenbaums.

Apparently he did it for a favour for a friend and director of that film. Plus I can't recall any media of Murray being anything less than the star he is (but in a good way). Respect to the man!

Whilst they were making this movie in London,Bill & Joanne both came into Dick's Bar in the Atlantic B&G whilst I was the head bartender there, it was his 2nd visit & he tipped very generously both times (3 figures) Joanne was still a head turner then & I let her have my zippo as a momento.
While he was there we had him singing New York, New York at the top of his voice (it was hilarious as Dick's was a bit like a hotel bar)
Bill called me at home to invite me to the rap party but sadly I had to decline as that fri night (mid december) was the busiest friday night of the year.
So I must say in my experience that he is a real gentleman & that she is a total babe

Are all you guys called Mosley? why? He left with an agent Mosley. I'M MOSLEY

You know what, I think it would be very abnormal if Bill did not have off days like the rest of us.

In general I am a very placid and tactful person but there are a few people who persistently refer to rare occasions when I have had 'moments', some of them many years ago when I was barely an adult. I believe this is what has happened with Bill. No doubt he has had a moment or two, which actor has not? I say this purely because I firmly believe it is impossible to go through life without having moments.

I should think in the acting profession moments are prevalent because of egos.

My take on Murray "in real life" is if he wants to interact with you on HIS terms, it could be a very special experience, but if he's not in the mood and you try to interact with him more on YOUR terms, he could be a real ass. So you'd just have to take your chances and expect an extreme, and you're going to have to life with it if it's not so good. And I don't think he loses any sleep over which he leaves you with.
