Bill Murray and Scarlett Johansson in a scene from Lost in Translation
Actor Bill Murray created a small sensation in the Scottish town of St. Andrews, joining Scandinavian students at a late-night party and even helping to wash the dishes, the Sunday Telegraph has reported.
In the Oscar-winning movie Lost in Translation, Murray plays a lonely middle-aged actor in Japan who befriendsa young American woman and goes partying with her.
And in what the newspaper said was life imitating art, the 56-year-old Murray joined up with 22-year-old Norwegian student Lykke Stavnef, who took him to a house where a party of Scandinavian students was in full swing.
"He was just like the character in Lost in Translation," Stavnef said.
She said Murray was happy to drink vodka from a coffee cup, then to help wash dishes in the cramped kitchen.
Tom Wright, 22, another college student, said: "The party was overflowing with stunning Scandinavian blondes. He seemed to be in his element, cracking lots of jokes. It was the talk of the town the next day."
