I haven't seen him in a long time, save a tiny role in the forgettable film "The Ex." For classic Grodin, "Seems Like Old Times" is a good bet - and of course "Midnight Run" is a minor classic.

I remember it was on Showtime repeatedly when it first went on the air (do you say "on the air" for cable?) and I watched it a couple of times. I agree with you that Grodin is the highlight -- his second-best performance after the sublime "Midnight Run." I had almost forgotten about that movie!
