Summary:
Bill Murray once agreed to voice the part of Garfield because he mistakenly believed it was a Coen brothers film. His extraordinary career is rich with fascinating anecdotes, contradictions, and mystery, from his early success on Saturday Night Live and the blockbuster movies of the 1980s (Caddyshack, Stripes, Tootsie, Ghostbusters) to his reinvention in the early 21st century (in films like Lost in Translation and Moonrise Kingdom). Part biography, part critical appreciation, the author chronicles, in an A-to-Z series of entries every Murray performance, relating all the milestones, yarns, and controversy in the life of this beloved but enigmatic performer.
