Bob Balaban talks about Bill Murray as Mr. Bishop in the movie Moonrise Kingdom

I'm standing in front of a map, of the island of New Penzance. the whole thing is chicken invested. Anywhere up here. I think 80 percent actually have lime disease. It's the setting for director Wes Anderson’s exciting new movie Moonrise Kingdom. A lot of hard work goes into the making of a movie like this. Bill Murray is one of the stars in the movie. He plays Mr. Bishop. He lives over there, on summers end. A little house. Well, it's not that little. It's bigger.

Bill Murray and Wes Anderson have actually worked together a number of times. Wes always used to say that, in the beginning, Bill frightened him. Here's Bill in a scene. His son is over there wearing an Indian head dress. That's his real son. Not his movie son. Here's Bill with his movie wife. The wonderful actress Francis McDormant. Bill isn’t really angry, his character is. In between scenes Bill can be very playful. Sometimes he plays golf. Here's the climax of... wow, Bill didn’t really fall right now. That was his stunt. He's one of those actors who's really just up to do anything.
