	Stiller bridges gap between generations - The Daily Orange - Feature
		Stiller, a speech and drama graduate from the SU class of 1950, was brought back to campus by Hillel to share stories from his time spent at Syracuse, as well as his experiences from the sets of "Seinfeld" and other acting jobs.
		Though it was Stiller's show, Meara remained mic'd throughout the performance, interrupting Stiller here and there to throw in comments of her own, correcting his stories, telling him when he was getting too long-winded and poking fun at his mannerisms.
		While Stiller and Meara noted that they were old enough to be grandparents to most of the people in attendance, their raunchy and sexual humor still struck a chord with the young audience.

		Born in New York City on November 30, 1965, Stiller was making films by the time he was ten, cathartic 8 mm epics in which he got even with the schoolyard bullies who tormented him.
		Successfully teaming with Owen Wilson to take stupidity to new heights, Stiller's portrayal of a staggeringly dim but irresistibly handsome catwalk legend struck a chord with audiences looking for pure escapism, and a spin-off television series was soon rumored to be in development.
		Though Stiller and Wilson would seem the ideal pair for such a conceptually rich re-imagining of 1970s television, reviews were once again lackluster and the film struggled to make a profit.

		Stiller says he was drawn to the family-oriented radio series, "One People, Many Stories" — in which celebrities read Jewish tales by authors such as Sheldon Oberman and Isaac Bashevis Singer — because the literature connect him to his own family stories.
		After Stiller comforted Meara, the two unemployed actors were walking down Broadway when she asked if he was a comedian.
		Stiller went on to star in films such as "Hairspray" before landing the "Seinfeld" role that would make him something of a pop culture icon in the 1990s.

		Oscar-winner Hoffman, who plays Stiller's free-spirited father in "Meet the Fockers," said what impressed him about Stiller was that he wasn't looking for the laugh so much as the irony of a situation.

	LA Weekly: Film Feature: What Makes Ben Stiller?
		What's made Stiller famous is playing a dweeb whose penis gets caught in his zipper, a moment of excruciating public humiliation that has been eagerly embraced by a country rebounding from a strangely parallel public humiliation suffered in the White House.
		Stiller loved the book, and paid a visit to Bill Gerber, who had bought the rights to Sammy the dec-a ade before when he was an executive at Warner Bros. (he is now producing the film under his own shingle at the studio, Populuxe).
		Stiller subsequently brought in Stahl, and the third draft of their very good, very faithful adaptation will serve as the film's shooting script when it goes into production next year.

		Stiller knows how to use his big head for broad comic effect: if he pulls down his chin and stares, he looks like a mildly paranoid gibbon, and by furrowing his brow and twisting his mouth he can do a dozen variations on dopey suspiciousness, manic glee, or pawing-the-dirt sexual rage.
		Stiller is short and strong—indeed, he was so muscled up as White Goodman, the narcisso-creep owner of a deluxe fitness center, in last year’s “Dodgeball,” that he was almost impossible to look at.
		Ben Stiller is no doubt aware of all this, and he may, on some level, want to break out of the box that his extraordinary success has put him in.

		Assessing risk for a living, he is completely shocked when the wife he has chosen decides to cheat on him the first day of their honeymoon.
		Some of Stiller’s best performances are when he is put in awkward situations, and this proved to be a strong point of this movie too, mainly on his first date with Polly.
		I love Ben Stiller, I think that he is one of the funniest dry humorists of our time, but this film fell far short of his abilities and an especially weak comedic performance by Jennifer Anniston overshadowed the above average showings of the three supporting actors in the film.
