God I miss the early-nineties version of Frank Whaley!

Warning: Spoilers
This guy (Mr. Whaley) never gotten enough credit for being the renowned thespian that he is. This guy's been in about 45 movies since the late 80's, including some lead or "near-lead" roles, and I bet he still walks down the street in relative anonymity to this day.

He's always been believable in everything I've seen him in (from roller skating with Jennifer Connelly's chest in "Career Opportunites" to his small role at the end of "School of Rock"). And who can forget his classic 'Big Kahuna Burger' scene in "Pulp Fiction" with Sam Jackson? Well, Frank does another stellar job as Guy in "Swimming with Sharks", holding his own against a first-rate performance from Mr. Spacey. The movie sails along nicely, including the lovely Michelle Forbes as the alluring Dawn to keep it from becoming a total "sausage fest". It appears they threw in a far-fetched "Hollywood Ending" which I don't think ever happened after watching the DVD extras, but I won't ruin it for you. Check it out the next time you've had a crap day with the boss.
