Happy Birthday, BillMurray! 🎂 Revisit his 1999 conversation with WesAnderson.

I figured the writing was so specific that whoever wrote it knew exactly what they were going to shoot. I never have a problem with guys who make a movie that misses as long as they make the movie they want to make. That’s usually the hard part. So why did you ask me to be in the film?Murray laughs

], but at the time you were driving a trailer across country or something, so we gave up. We’d always been fans of yours. I was a majorANDERSON: I think I was Venkman for Halloween one year.MURRAY: And you probably still fit in it.you were the person we had in mind for Mr. Blume. We didn’t know you, so we modeled it on the kind of guy we thought you’d be great for.ANDERSON: One of the things Owen and I were most interested in was the way Blume becomes friends with the kid, Max.

MURRAY: It’s like one guy’s glass is half-full and the other guy’s glass is half-empty. They’re at the same spot in life, except one of them is receding and one is rising. And if the guy who’s receding can somehow hook on to the guy who’s growing, maybe he can delay his erosion. You know, in life you meet the same people on the way down as you do on the way up. You see that a lot in Hollywood, although I never met a lot of the people I’m meeting now, so I must be going up.

MURRAY: Yeah. I said to him, “I want to take you out for a chicken-fried steak.” But he didn’t know what a chicken-fried steak was. And I went, “Kid, you know about hookers, but you don’t know about chicken-fried steak?” That relaxed him and put him on a higher plane. He was going to become somebody else, you know. He was going to be made a man that night. And, of course, he got better and better every day on the movie after that, to the point where right now he’s just unbearable.

MURRAY: I’ve liked most of the characters I’ve played, but writing-wise they weren’t all finished. I thinkwas another that was exceptionally well-written. With, it was great to be able to serve the story without waving a flag over my head, which you often have to do when you’re the lead and have to carry the film. So I enjoyed playing Blume because I really believe an actor’s job is to serve.
