Talking Documentary – Tommy Avallone stalks a legend in “The Bill Murray Stories”

The internet is awash in what are known as “Bill Murray stories.” Murray crashing a bachelor party. Bill Murray joining a random kickball game. Bill Murray washing a stranger’s dishes. Tommy Avallone traveled to two continents to find out whether these stories were true, and what they tell us about Bill Murray as well as ourselves. Avallone’s 2018 film, “The Bill Murray Stories: Life Lessons Learned from a Mythical Man,” is a light-hearted exploration of a quirky and beloved celebrity. But it’s also a meditation on life and the importance of being present.
