* AwardSnub: Has made a career of having acclaimed performances not get noticed at the Oscars. The most notable are ''ComicBook/AmericanSplendor'', ''Film/{{Sideways}}'' and ''Literature/BarneysVersion'' (he did win a Golden Globe for the latter though). His one nomination (a Best Supporting Actor nomination for ''Film/CinderellaMan'') was widely seen as a make-up for the ''Sideways'' snub.
