I feel like Im inching towards comic coot by way of wise Professor a la John Houseman in Paper Chase. Mr. Murray is 64 now, or 105 in American movie industry years, which means he’s transitioned into codgerdom. The business has always found a way to employ its silver foxes and grizzled geezers, one reason there are so many variations on the codger, including the leathery badass (John Wayne, Clint Eastwood, Liam Neeson); the comic coot (Gabby Hayes, Walter Brennan); the wise elder (hello, Morgan Freeman); and the scrooge, both unreconstructed and reformed (Lionel Barrymore in “It’s a Wonderful Life” and the voice of Ed Asner in “Up”).
