Coolest Little-Known Fact About Bill Murray3 of 26
After the New York premiere of Hyde Park on Hudson (2012), Murray and the film-makers took questions from the audience.

According to US GQ, one audience member wondered how the special effects department had managed to make the limbs look so hideous. As the giggling from the stage quickly made apparent, no special effects were involved. Murray let the laughter die down. “That,” he said after a long pause, “is acting.”
