as that despicable weasel jerry lundegaard, the used-car salesman who has his wife kidnapped in order to secure a ransom from his wealthy father-in-law, macy is great at playing such a lovable prick. from the beginning, you hate jerry and want nothing but the worst possible outcome for him, however, as his barney fife-ish personality grows on you, when he is arrested fleeing from north dakota, you can't help but feel sorry for him.
*nominated for 1996 best supporting actor oscar;
