	Fametracker :: Hey! It's That Guy! :: Bob Balaban (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-21)
		Balaban effortlessly fluctuated between wearily dismissing George (a full-time student in the school of sputtering, hand-fluttering neurotic nebbishes) and doggedly stalking Elaine, thus transforming Dalrymple from a typical one-note sitcom standby to a strangely sympathetic, even comically tragic, character.
		Balaban's talent for dreary deadpan -- he's kind of like a hyper-intelligent version of Droopy Dog -- have since been on display in Waiting for Guffman (as longsuffering teacher Lloyd Miller), Clockwatchers (corporate drone Milton Lasky), and Best in Show (exquisitely-named dog expert Dr. Theodore W. Millbank III).
		Balaban can currently be enjoyed in Ghost World, which is limited-releasing its way across the country this week.

		BALABAN: No, because it all emanates from the head, and Christopher is a supremely kind, generous, sort of magical person, and he only puts people around him who – see, you have to trust a lot of these things.
		BALABAN: Oh gosh, no. I mean, there's no question that Christopher controls absolutely everything, but he does it just by his presence, and by the fact that he cast you, and by the fact that he knew to put you in this situation.

		In Parents, director Bob Balaban deconstructs our Father Knows Best perception of '50s suburbia, skewing it via moody cinematography and Angelo Badalamenti's sinister score.
		Vastly underappreciated, Balaban's Parents is one of those rare modern horror films that uses psychology to freak you out rather than tossing buckets of blood at you (although there are a few in the film, given its theme).
