Bill Murray hat auf Reddit ein paar Fragen beantwortet und dabei diesen Film erwähnt. Er schrieb:
someone asked "what movie was the most fun to act in" and deleted their comment, so here goes:
Well, I did a film with Jim Jarmusch called Broken Flowers, but I really enjoyed that movie. I enjoyed the script that he wrote. He asked me if I could do a movie, and I said "I gotta stay home, but if you make a movie that i could shoot within one hour of my house, I'll do it."
So he found those locations. And I did the movie.
And when it was done, I thought "this movie is so good, I thought I should stop." I didn't think I could do any better than Broken Flowers, it's a film that is completely realized, and beautiful, and I thought I had done all I could do to it as an actor. And then 6-7 months later someone asked me to work again, so I worked again, but for a few months I thought I couldn't do any better than that.
Und obwohl der nur eine mittelmäßige Bewertung hat, und vielleicht weil er nicht einfach ist, kann ich das verstehen. Man kann den Film mögen.
