Here’s to the fearless Don Murphy, a laser-brained, seriously tough-nut producer I’ve known since about ’94 (when he was producing Natural-Born Killers with his then-partner Jane Hamsher)…a guy who won’t take ‘no’…a guy who once tore into me because I had the absolute temerity to ring up Vincent Gallo and later Ed Sanders because I was interested in the progress of a possible Murphy-produced Charles Manson movie…a guy who once said to me, “You…are…my…bitch!” They’re just words and they hit the floor like drops of water off a duck’s ass. Murphy is one of the coolest hard-core hombres in town, and he comes off pretty well in this profile by Hollywood Reporter columnist Anne Thompson.
