Bill Doesn't Need the Hardware - Austin

Bill Murray once told Variety, "Film awards carry a virus." And that he had "been infected" the year of his 2004 film "Lost in Translation." I had received all the other critical awards, but when not the Oscar, I realized “Oh God, I must have really wanted it… or thought I did. It made me sick for about six months.” "People also get this post-award blowback where they start thinking they should only make Oscar-worthy films after that. What you see then is an actor caught in the headlights, with great difficulty choosing, often followed by bad choices.”
