Yup, Bill Murray's Ted Kennedy was hilarious.

Watched the movie last night. Agree on the acting by Jason Clarke.

One thing that surprised me was that the portrayal actually made Kennedy into a sympathetic/pathetic character. He showed moments of: extreme selfishness, cowardice, weakness (especially regarding his father), insecurity, remorse (calling the Kopechne's), and remorseless (taking a bath to relax, laying down on the bridge)and all the time, pure stupidity.

One role that is deserving of an Oscar nod is that of Bruce Dern as Joseph Kennedy. Favorite Line (he only had three):

(to Ted): "You will never be a great man."

How astute that was.
