Thank you, JWA, my weekend movie choice just got a lot easier. In addition to Rocky Horror Picture Show, of course. Wink

While Sutherland was almost typecast to play oddball or evil characters, his acting range was much broader. He was allowed to display this as Calvin Jarrett, the grieving father of Timothy Hutton’s traumatized, suicidal character as his younger son, in the 1980 film Ordinary People. It is a highly demanding role requiring the portrayal of quiet stability and emotional heroism, providing a lifeline to his son as he discovers the hidden resentment and bitterness of his wife, who secretly blames her surviving son for the death of her elder son. Mary Tyler Moore is also allowed to show her full range and break out of the lightweight, happy time roles to which she’d been confined. A powerful drama, it was Robert Redford’s directorial debut. He won the Best Director Oscar for it. I had forgotten how good it was until you mentioned Sutherland’s Oddball.

And, in my ignorance, I’d thought Moriarity had died in the Reichenbach Falls. This must be a retarded descendant.
