Melancholic and lovable is the trick, right? You've got to be able to show that you have these feelings. In the game of life, you get these feelings … - Bill Murray

I think The Razor's Edge is a pretty good movie. But at the time, it was just as reviled as any other comedian doing a serious thing now. Like The Majestic [with Jim Carrey], movies where comedians go straight, people don't like them. It angers people, like you're taking something away from them. That's the response I got. I thought, "Well, aren't we all bigger than that?" I wasn't shocked by it, but I thought that the professional critics would be able to say, "OK, we shouldn't rule this out, because the guy normally does other stuff." Unless it's really despicable, then you have to just jump with both feet on the neck.

I don't know what my fans are going to think. It's definitely not what they're used to from me.

This isn't the old Mister Sunshine.
