The Cooler, yes, I don't think it's well known.

William H. Macy is just fantastic in The Cooler. Alec Baldwin . . . meh.

I think William H. Macy is a great actor. I don't think I've seen him give a bad performance.

Really? I've never liked his movies or found his characters very deep/believable.

We'll have to agree to disagree. I've found he has enhanced any movie he has been in. They were not all great movies mind you. But he's been in some excellent films like Fargo, Mr. Holland's Opus, Mystery Men, Magnolia. He may not be a leading man but he's an excellent character actor.

Have you seen Hard Eight?

I liked The Cincinnati Kid with Steve McQueen.
