Mr. Deeds was the defining performance of his career
I just realized something watching Mr. Deeds tonight on basic cable.
The defining performance of Turturro's career is the butler in this film.
It is what 90% of people associate him with(excluding his stock performance in Transformers).
Anytime people see this guy trying to do a serious role, they immediately think "Please, let me touch your feet."
I wonder if he regrets being in that movie, after all it has severely limited his casting options.
