Story: Bill Murray is one of those rare comic actors who has made a successful break into serious roles. A Saturday Night Live alumni, he broke into movies while still a cast member, in the memorable summer camp comedy, Meatballs. He continued to thrive in comedic roles, like Caddyshack and Stripes, before the blockbuster phenomenon of Ghostbusters in 1984, which diminished the impact of his first attempt at a serious role in The Razor’s Edge, leading him to drop out of movie making for a few years, during which time he studied at the Sorbonne in Paris. Upon his return to cinema, he starred in the Christmas favorite, Scrooged, which put him back on the road to making a string of comedy classics, like What About Bob? and Groundhog Day. Murray’s subtle self-parody in Sofia Coppola’s Lost in Translation garnered him BAFTA and Golden Globe awards, and even his first Oscar nomination. Stars: Murray was born with his natal Sun conjunct the South Node in Virgo, reflecting the puppy-dog melancholy of his onscreen persona, the essence of his greatest comedic and serious work. Astrology explores how planetary transits to this conjunction have shadowed his career path over the years. |
