It's a pity Grosse Pointe Blank from 1997 and Pushing Tin from 1999 could not have been included in your list. I have to be honest and say that I don't really remember The Thin Red Line or Runaway Jury. I'm not certain I've seen both, I must put them on the list to watch soon. Identity I went to see in the cinema, purely because it was a Cusack film. I thought it was a great story. I have to be even more honest and say that on the whole, I think High Fidelity is over rated. I saw it when it came out, and I thought it was pretty good, but I suspect that it receives unanimous praise now purely because it would be going against the grain too much to be in any way critical of it.

Like yourself i'd always said if john cusack is in a movie it's worth a look. I think runaway jury is an adaptation of a john grisham book. Rachael Weiss and Gene Hackman are in it too.

He was also nominated for the Best Actor Oscar for three of those films and inexplicably lost out each time, the most galling being losing out to Tommy Lee Jones in The Fugitive the year he was nominated for the role of Amon Goeth in Schindler's List. I'll never understand that decision.
