Now you're REALLY dating yourself... for me, the guy with the shirt in that
movie is usually Steve Buscemi or J.T. Walsh :)

(There actually used to be a web site called "Hey! It's that Guy!" with
lists of character actors.  It was great fun to browse.  Sadly, it seems to
be defunct and the domain hijacked.)

Speaking of hijacked, since we've hijacked the thread, I just want to put
this out there:  I really want to know the name of the voice actor who did
the Oxy-10 commercials (and Britches Great Outdoors, and a few others).
Someday, someone will Google this and tell me.  Maybe.  Even the brand
manager at Oxy doesn't know (he's new).

He sounds like this:
