Alec Baldwin GGR Speech

Unless we're talking about a body of work, this has to be the answer to the OP's question.

The Grossman character is in multiple scenes and even drives certain elements of the plot. Baldwin's part in GGR was written in specifically for him (not in the original play) to give the opening some kick for the film. Everything he said, substantively, could have been read by Spacy's character to the salesmen to kick off the events of the film (likely was the case with the play).

And whatever else one thinks about Baldwin, in his prime he had quite the range and could chew up scenery like few others. "Nicholson-esque" (although never quite legendary like Jack).
