Reviews:

I Tried to be Murray Burns, but I Did Snap Out of it!
I first saw it years ago as an idealistic college student who did not want to become one of the great gray working millions, saddled with a job I didn’t like, a huge mortgage, etc.. At that time, I fell in love with the movie and the characters. That’s the problem. The movie cast a spell over me and sprinkled some weird kind of fairy dust over me. I wanted to be Murray Burns: a nonconformist, a smart ass, a non-contributor, a guy who ALWAYS did ONLY what HE ALONE wanted to do. And so, for a few years, that’s what I did.

Those years, I must admit, were not very happy ones for me. Self-indulgence is a dead-end. I needed to be working hard, towards a goal, with a family, for me to feel truly fulfilled. And I think that is the case with most of us.

Murray Burns and his world are totally unrealistic AND unhealthy. Do not try to emulate him. It is a trap and a prison. It’s like smoking dope all the time: you lose your drive and you increase your cynicism.

But perhaps I’m being too serious. Murray does have the kid, and he seems to fall in love at the end, so maybe there is hope for him. The movie has some great lines and funny characters. The black and white scenes of NYNY in the 1960’s are wonderful, Martin Balsam as Murray’s brother is one of our greatest actors, Barbara Harris is great, William Daniels is great, Barry Gordon as Rafael Sabattini, etc., is great.

See it and enjoy it but don’t take it to heart like I did.

Alexander Hamilton imitations???
