Jon Lovitz

Jon Lovitz is the kind of performer I admire more the longer I think about him. His Saturday Night Live run from 1985 to 1990 made him a fixture of a golden era, but what stays with me is his comic timing, that smug, slightly oily smile and the way he can warp a scene's whole tone the moment he appears. He works across film, television, stage and voice acting with equal ease, which to me marks a true craftsman rather than a one-trick star. He never needed to be the lead. He simply made everything funnier, and I respect that quiet kind of mastery.
