New Caddyshack book details Bill Murray's major drug problem

Baba Pugwuthi
  A new book that covers the entire conception and productions of the classic movie Caddyshack has been written and in it several revelations of Bil Murray and his moody erratic behavior and problems that are slo obvious in his old age could be seen brewing ahhhh like a cup of coffee back then. Chris Nashawaty pretty much sums up the problems Bill Murray cause don set and how he and Chevy Chase hated each other often coming to blows and thrown coffee cups on set and the book "CaddyShack" The making of a Cinderella explains how this simple comedy became such a big money making hit.This book also explains how Bill Murray was a querulous bastard during this era and how stardom got to his head.
 In this interesting factual book on Caddy shack the author describes the battle to include the gopher despite objections to it being to corny and the decision to add struggling comedian Rodney Dangerfield into the cast. Caddyshack beat all expectations and delivered Bill Murray into stardom as he was basically just a relic of Saturday Night Live whose future at the time of this movie was murky.
Bill Murray got busted one day at an airport Mr Nashawaty writes with a ton of drugs in his handbag and system and one must wonder the role of Hollywood stars in transferring and spreading a drug culture through this country at this time. As this book explains Bill Murray got busted and wa humiliated and talk of drugs and heavy uie during this movie accounts for much of the book explaining Hollywood's surreptitious way to promote and spread narcotic in society using people and stars that many look up to in life. Murray's arrest for having liek ahundred grand in marijuana and coke is mentioned in this book and it surprised me as I never thought of Bill Murray as a heavy drug user but seeing thjis role he played there is no doubt that tbhis man was so juiced up on with every drug imaginable at thnis time and I imagine Bill doesn't even remember this role or his time on set of this movie. Bill Murray is worshiped to this day by a twisted corporate culture in Chicago but in reality Wild Bill was just hoped up on gope and only beloved because of his pupeterring talents with a hand under a gopher outfit. Without this movie Bill Murray would have been as irreverent as Tim Krayzenski (sic) or even a Chevy Chase post 1985. Bill Murray's drug bust and the eventual demise of John  Belushi was pretty much explanatory as Hollywood stars were traveling marketeers and drug pusher salesmen of which many of the silly jackasses eventually became addicted and just died and withered away as Oprah Winfrey would say.
