He recalled watching Hackman do multiple perfect takes when another actor failed to nail the scene.
I was watching it going, No wonder this guy wants to throttle people.
Murray added: He was a great one.
He was a great actor.
He felt a lot of responsibility, he continued.
But the performance he gave was brilliant.
Murray said Hackman later acknowledged that he acted like a jerk.
He added: When you see the movie, its a real piece of work.
Wes Anderson makes great movies and so does Gene Hackman.
You put them both in the same movie, what are you gonna get?
Youre gonna get a good movie.
