Question: Do you know what movie Bill Murray is watching on TV in Broken Flowers?


Answer: Bill Murray plays an aging, emotionally disconnected lothario in Broken Flowers, and he's watching The Private Life of Don Juan (1934) when his girlfriend announces that she's packed the last of her things and is leaving him forever. The film was obviously chosen for the way in which it echoes the themes of Broken Flowers, starting with the fact that its Don Juan (played by silent-film star Douglas Fairbanks; it turned out to be his last film) is also middle-aged and forced to reckon with his past.
