Actor: John Cusack

John Cusack’s image is fixed by one shot in Say Anything, holding a boombox above his head, which he has been asked about continuously for thirty-five years.

Grosse Pointe Blank and High Fidelity, both of which he co-wrote, are the better films, and Being John Malkovich gives him the strangest role. He has worked steadily in genre and independent film, and is a prolific and combative political commentator online.
