10 Actors You Never Knew Directed A Movie

10. Bill Murray - Quick Change (1990)

Bill Murray is a treasure of planet Earth, and despite his immense talent has only directed one movie. That movie was Quick Change, a 1990 crime comedy in which he also starred and co-produced.

In the movie, Murray stars as Grimm, a burnt out clown who decides to rob a Manhattan bank. With the help of his cohorts, Phyllis (Geena Davis) and Loomis (Randy Quaid), the robbery is a success and they make away with $1 million dollars. However the real task at hand is what follows: escaping New York City.

As lady luck evidently conspires to upend their getaway, the robbers constantly find themselves struggling to quickly get out of the city, becoming obstructed by construction works, fires, and non-English speaking cab drivers.

After the dizzying success he experienced in the 1980s, with two Ghostbuster movies, Scrooged, Caddyshack, and more, the next logical step for Murray would be directing. However, despite being well-reviewed, the movie didn't lead to the kind of financial success many of his other movies achieved. A real shame.
