Never fall in love with somebody you actually love.

Correct, tiggy. Dylan Baker should be replacing him. I recognise him from something, but can't place it yet..

P-C, isn't that Happyness?

(The movie, right?)

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

Happiness.

The Pursuit of Happyness.

Thanks, ita. I hadn't even heard of Happiness. I'm hoping to see The Pursuit of Happyness.

i've seen him in several things, but he's definitely a character actor whose name i wouldn't really know. Alan Ruck, on the other hand, will always be Cameron.

Dylan Baker was in The Book of Daniel if you saw any of the few episodes that aired

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."

I hadn't even heard of Happiness.

He gets the bold acting medal of honor for playing a supercreepy pedophile in that movie.

Blue Book Cinema question: Is Todd Soldonz's contempt for humanity greater than Neil Labute's contempt for women?

"I remember when they eventually introduced that drug kingpin who murdered people and smuggled drugs inside snakes and I was like 'Finally. A normal person.'” —RahvinDragand

No. Some of Solondz's characters are normal people, with touches of humanity and redeeming features. Hell, he even imbued Dylan Baker's pedophile character with some sympathetic qualities, despite the horror of what he was doing.
