GroundhogDay producer Trevor Albert is looking back on the tense shooting conditions between star Bill Murray and co-writer/director Harold Ramis. 'It was unfortunate and probably made the movie considerably less fun to make.'
While still considered a classic today, Groundhog Day producer Trevor Albert recalls the tense shoot with star Bill Murray and co-writer/director Harold Ramis. The 1983 film centered on Phil Connors, a cynical TV weatherman becoming fed up with his life who finds himself stuck in a time loop on February 2 while covering the eponymous celebration in Punxsutawney, Pennsylvania.
SCREENRANT VIDEO OF THE DAY In honor of the film's 30th anniversary, The Hollywood Reporter caught up with Trevor Albert to discuss the legacy of the fantasy comedy Groundhog Day. While looking back at the production of the classic film, the producer recalled the tense shooting environment between Murray and Ramis, which ultimately led to the disintegration of their longstanding creative partnership and friendship.
It was a tense shoot for a number of reasons. It was unfortunate and probably made the movie considerably less fun to make. You can still make a very good movie when people are not in perfect harmony.Bill Murray and Harold Ramis' History Together Well before their partnership came to an end on Groundhog Day, Murray and Ramis had a long-standing tenure of acclaimed collaborations beginning in the mid '70s with their time on The National Lampoon Radio Hour.
The success of the 1980 film led to a string of hits for the pair over the next decade, beginning with 1981's Stripes, which reunited them with Reitman and was a critical and commercial hit. Their biggest collaboration would come just three years later with 1984's Ghostbusters, in which Murray and Ramis not only starred in the sci-fi comedy, but also saw the latter co-write the script with co-star Dan Aykroyd.
Murray and Ramis' Groundhog Day conflicts became a source of infamy in the wake of the film's release, with the two clashing over its tone, the latter's direction, and other actors' performances.
