Watched it over 2 days....his best performance, ever, IMHO. He just seemed to understand that role, like he lived it.

I've been a fan for decades as well. I think the 1st time he came on my radar was in "Nightshift". A low budget screwball comedy with Henry Winkler. He was perfectly cast in that role.
