This guy. This guy, man. One of my faves. Dancer In The Dark, Fargo, Minority Report, this guy never phones it in. What do you peeps think of this kool kat?

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...

oh, okay.  yeah, he's a great actor.  i've probably seen him in more films that i can even remeber.  so has he completely crossed over to american cinema?

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).
""Money doesn't come into it. It never has. I do what I do because it's all that I am." - Morrissey

"Lacan stressed more and more in his work the power and organizing principle of the symbolic, understood as the networks, social, cultural, and linguistic, into which a child is born. These precede the birth of a child, which is why Lacan can say that language is there from before the actual moment of birth. It is there in the social structures which are at play in the family and, of course, in the ideals, goals, and histories of the parents. This world of language can hardly be grasped by the newborn and yet it will act on the whole of the child's existence."
