How Bill Murray Entertained 1000 Extras In His Climactic Kingpin Scene
Filming the climactic bowling scene in Kingpin required the undivided attention of 1000 extras, but comedy legend Bill Murray was up to the challenge.
Featuring the talents of comedy movie legends like Woody Harrelson and Bill Murray, the Farrelly brothers' Kingpin is an underrated gem in the directing duo's filmography. Released in 1996, the film centers on Roy Munson (Harrelson), a disgraced professional bowling champion who trains newcomer Amish bowler Ismael Boorg (Randy Quaid) for the Reno championship. Along the way, Roy comes up against Ernie "Big Earn" McCracken (Murray), his bowling rival who's responsible for Roy's career nosedive.
