most remember him as Jackie Treehorn in the Big Lebowski.

I also saw him in Buffalo '66... he was maybe the only thing that kept that from being a terrible movie.

I haven't seen Anatomy of a Murder, but that was probably his most famous role.

Kind of off topic, but if you look at that Wikipedia link, it has the movie 'Brian's Song' listed at 2001. When I saw the date I was thinking someone did a remake lol.

Exactly. He played such a good villian in that movie. You just hated the guy so fn much..lol. He was a complete utter asshole in that role.
 
Jackie Treehorn draws a lot of water in this town. You don't draw shit, Lebowski.
