In Reply to: Watch it again, guy. Murray's performance/character in posted by tinear on January 15, 2004 at 06:50:07:
Hey, I like those movies. I like Bill Murray in those movies. Groundhog Day is another good example. Again, I don't see what he does that's so impressive.Ralph Fiennes in Spider does an excellent job. That's acting.
Benicio del Toro in 21 Grams does an excellent job. Again, acting.
Didn't like Mystic River, but Tim Robbins? Acting.
Bill Murray is like a good Keanu Reeves: we like Bill acting like Bill, while Keanu acting like Keanu is annoying. But he isn't doing much beyond that. That's not a bad thing, it's just true.

Follow Ups:
When Bill is doing the commercials, or when he's being introduced to folks, he is the Bill "of old."
But with Scarlet, in his room alone, talking to his wife, etc.---he plays off his persona. I can't believe you missed it. THAT's why he's being considered for an Oscar---he put a bit of himself out there. Not as much as, say, Marlon B did in "Last Tango..." but something similar. Hey, to think of it, maybe the "Lost" is a play on "Last." Two older guys, younger girls...
