A strawberry blond character actor who has given fearless performances that expose both the beauty and ugliness of real life, Philip Seymour Hoffman has created a number of memorable characters since his debut in the early 1990s. Some may recall the actor as one of the snooty prepsters in %22Scent of a Woman%22 (1992) while others might remember him as Dusty, one of the storm chasers in %22Twister%22 (1996). Smaller roles in films including %22Leap of Faith%22 (1992), %22Sliver%22 (1993), and %22When a Man Loves a Woman%22 (1994) helped to earn him a %22Hey, it's that guy%22 level of familiarity with audiences before his real breakthrough came with a turn as the slightly pathetic Scotty, the film crew member with a crush on porn star Dirk Diggler, in %22Boogie Nights%22 (1997)....
