He's Something Special

Clueless introduced the world to a number of fine actors.

Hot Stacey Dash. Ageless Breckin Meyer. Trashy Brittany Murphy.

Sisto. Faison.

None matched the on-screen genius of Paul Rudd.

He made an already good movie, great.

He makes all projects better. Bad to good. Good to great. Great to perfect.
Romeo + Juliet. The Object of My Affection. Wet Hot American Summer.

All good films on their own. Add a dose of Rudd. They become something special.

His turn on Friends was a disappointment. Through no fault of his own. It was Friends after all. While the show may not have been worthy of his talent, it brought Paul Rudd into millions of homes. Adding to an already growing fanbase.

Anchorman saw Paul Rudd at the very top of his game. It is the kind of film that comes along once in a lifetime. It was only natural to have an actor of Rudd's caliber cast in the role of Brian Fantana.

As a Judd Apatow Player, Rudd continues to make those around him great. Like Lisa Kudrow before them, Steve Carell and Seth Rogan owe him so much. He is selfless. Sharing in Hollywood glory that is rightfully his. His alone.
