Career: Murray joined Chicago's Second City improvisational comedy team in 1973. He then worked with National Lampoon Radio Hour and joined the cast of Saturday Night Live. He starred in 1979's Meatballs, but his first major film was 1980's Caddyshack - Ghostbusters, Scrooged, Quick Change (which he co-directed) and Groundhog Day followed. In 1998, he worked with director Wes Anderson for the first time on Rushmore, which boosted his career as a dramatic actor. He's subsequently featured in the film-maker's The Royal Tenenbaums, The Darjeeling Limited, The Life Aquatic with Steve Zissou, Fantastic Mr Fox and Moonrise Kingdom. Other notable parts include Kingpin, Lost in Translation (for which he won a Bafta and received an Oscar nomination), Hyde Park on the Hudson, The Monuments Men, Broken Flowers and St Vincent.

Career: MacDowell's modelling career took off in a big way, but it also led her to the movies. In 1984, she landed a role in Greystoke: The Legend of Tarzan (though her voice was dubbed by Glenn Close), and a year later gained a small role in the blockbuster St Elmo's Fire. It would be another four years before she gained widespread success, and it started with indie flick sex, lies and videotape (1989). Since then, she has gone on to establish a solid acting career, with films such as Green Card (1990), Groundhog Day (1993), Short Cuts (1993), Four Weddings and a Funeral (1994) and Multiplicity (1996). More recently she's appeared in The Six Wives of Henry Lefay (2009), The 5th Quarter (2009) and Footloose (2011). Since 2013, she has starred in American drama Cedar Cove.
