Unfortunately for David Schwimmer, he is one of those rare
character actors who has actually achieved some fame. What this
means is he spent way too much time and energy trying to turn
himself into a leading man. Think about how much more fun he was to
watch as the stressed-out fiancé in “Six Days Seven
Nights” than as the romantic lead in “The
Pallbearer.”
In his upcoming film “Duane Hopwood,” Schwimmer once
again plays the lead. Hopefully someone will have the heart to tell
him to stick to smaller, more interesting parts.
