He's another very talented but under-rated actor, in my opinion.  He's a
come a long way from "21 Jump Street"!  But he does tend to do the
less-commercial and more outlandish movies, like Gilbert Grape, Edward
Scissorhands, and Ed Wood.  But that's all the more reason to like him - the
fact that he hasn't sold out by doing the commercial "hit" movies (where you
need a pretty face more than good acting ability).  He seems to take roles
that stretch his abilities.  I'm rambling, but hopefully you know what I
mean!
