"I was treated very well very early on by the French producer and distributor for my film Down by Law. And I made a little bit of money there. Broken Flowers was very helpful to me because Bill Murray and I had backend in the film, and the film did make some money. Whenever Bill would get paid, he would say, 'Well, did you pay Jim?' And they’d go, 'Oh? Oh, yeah, we’ll get right on it.' Bill really protected me, and I got paid enough to keep my mother in her own home her last years in Ohio, which was incredibly important to me and very expensive. And I got some other things taken care of for the people close to me. I must say Bill had a lot to do with that."
