I like this guy. And appreciate the fact that he kept it real all of these years.
One of my favorite films is 'FARGO'.

I'm a fan. Great actor. I like Fargo (and I'm from MN where the majority of the movie takes place). I like The Big Lebowski better though.

Yeah hes a good actor. Check him out on Boardwalk Empire. He had a good, but brief role on the Sopranos as Tony Soprano's cousin. Tried to get legit after prison, accidentally beat his boss to death... and had to get taken care of by Tony IIRC. OOPS!

Absolutely.

He often doesn't have much to do, but he does a tremendous amount with it.

Who else could play his characters? I mean, he *was* Donny, just as one example.

He's also a very down-to-earth guy, which is another reason I like him. You wouldn't catch him causing a disturbance on a plane because he wants to keep playing a game on his smartphone.

I appeciate the fact that he did not become ..'All Hollyweird'..and spend umpteen thousands of $$ fixing his grill (teeth), say like a Burt reynolds.

He knew he is not a pretty boy, and remained true to himself.

Wouldn't you consider that to be insane?"

i liked him as the quirky swindler in Fargo but I have seen a couple of other movies he was in which I found unwatchable as he was the central character and I hated him.

Great actor. He plays a real loser in "Trees Lounge." Trees Lounge (1996) - IMDb It's got some great bar fly characters hanging out in the lounge. Buscemi does a great job with a really unlikeable character.

This is off the chain !!
Most probably the roll that put him on the map as being..'Top-Shelf'.
Great stuff, thanx Jim B.

Does anyone know if Steve B. has done any work with Quentin Tarentino?

I think he would be great if he did a film directed by Martin Scorsese.

Great actor. Thought Fargo was a good one but I also liked Lebowski more.

Stevie is a great actor within his realm of roles. Seemingly down to earth, though he did get in a ruckus somewhere down south on location and got stabbed, IIRC...

His role as "Mr. Pink" in Tarentino's Reservoir Dogs was pretty good work. His take on tipping was unique.
