C L A U D E Posted February 24, 2014 Author Report Share Posted February 24, 2014 The actor/producer/writer, who came out of his native Second City, Chicago, starred in Ghostbusters along with Bill Murray, who he once feuded with, and received the same Comedy award that Lucy got and was well respected for his many contributions to the entertainment industry. He also was involved with National Lampoon's vacation as well as Stripes, Caddyshack and many others. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
C L A U D E Posted February 24, 2014 Author Report Share Posted February 24, 2014 I think my all time favorite of his many movies was the unbelievable GROUNDHOG DAY. I watch it regularly as an example of not only a different film but an extremely funny one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brock Posted February 24, 2014 Report Share Posted February 24, 2014 The writer of so many great comedies, four of which are on the list of the American Film Institute's best comedies of all time has passed away today at the very young age of 69, he had been ill for four years. I was surprised to read he had been ill for such a long time. The way he was pushing for Ghostbusters 3 made it sound like he was ready and willing to reprise his role.

C L A U D E Posted February 24, 2014 Author Report Share Posted February 24, 2014 I know his forte was writing and directing but I found his acting up there with the other two. He was great. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
