At first glance, you would think a plot involving a patient stalking his psychiatrist as more of a thriller than a comedy. But beneath this utterly scary scenario is a hilarious romp that stays harmless until the dark, somewhat irksome end.
Bob Wiley (Bill Murray) is an unemployed man who just dealt a painful divorce. After an appointment with a well-known psychotherapist (Richard Dreyfuss) Bob puts so much trust into the Dr. that he follows him to his New England retreat and drives his life absolutely crazy (though the family thinks he's a lot of fun.) The `this is a robbery' line in `Quick Change' was classic but `Bob' will remain as Murray's finest movie (and role.)
