I've enjoyed him in almost everything he's been in.

I agree

He's hilarious in Bored to Death.

It's a terrible movie but in " Ready to Rumble " he has one of the best lines ever and I still randomly say it, " Well what are you going to do.. Boob 'em to death ?"

Agree. Loved him in Fargo, but I love everyone in Fargo. He was also very good in Pieces of April, an obscure and underrated movie with Katie Holmes and Patricia Clarkson. They all did the film for around $250/day salary.

BTW, he was the narrator of that recent, awesome PBS series on World War I.

Agreed. Liked him most recently in X Men First Class

He's hilarious as the gay priest in Year One

He played his part as White House counsel great in West Wing.

Diggstown was great

I liked him much more than John Larroquette in West Wing.

His performance in Lake Placid will be talked about for generations

yup

he is a great choice for an "underrated actor" thread. i've never thought "why the frick did they cast oliver platt in this role" when i finished a movie.
this thread reminded me of this movie i had almost forgotten about. need to re-watch.

He was good in Simon Birch.

I'll throw in Flatliners.

We can't forgot about "Don't Say a Word," either. Or as the southern gentlemen in "A Time to Kill."
The back-and-forths between him and the guy from "Braveheart" are great in "Lake Placid."
