The function below half works: it does put the buffer-file-name into the kill ring, but nothing is displayed in the minibuffer. Why? And how to fix this?

(defun file-name-into-kill-buffer ()
"Put path/filename of current buffer onto kill-ring so to paste
into an X application.  Also display it in minibuffer."
(interactive)
     (let ((str (buffer-file-name)))
       (and str
            (kill-new str)
            (message "Copied filename %s to kill ring" str)))
)

Thanks much.
