I'm pretty sure I know who you're talking about, but who was he in "Minority Report"?  I guess I don't remember that film as much as the other two...

I wouldn't really say crossed over. He gets alot of work. Michael Bay has used him in armageddon and bad boys II, maybe more. He's so much better than that. I first noticed him in fargo and kept watching him. I think he was in the big lewbowki also. So he seems to be liked by directors since alot of them use him all the time.

Yeah, he does play good crazy, definetely agreed. But Dancer In The Dark he was completely sweet and almost child like. I dug that. He seems almost dumb in the way he moves and looks, but watching him in movies is an f'in treat.

I like this actor quite a lot.

I remember Michael Stipe saying Stormare was his #1 celebrity crush (with, presumably, Courtney Love in a close second- yeah, it was around then, probably 1998 or so).

I watched an episode of Seinfeld with Stormare in it earlier. He made me chuckle, i felt you ought to know.

How about his Lennon in Million Dollar Hotel? This guy's like Cate Blanchett, an utter chameleon.
