I haven't been around lately so I don't know if this has already been discussed...
But I saw a sneak peek of the World Trade Center movie last night and guess who plays Maggie Gyllenhaal's father? Go on, guess.

David:
I honestly don't know.   I have only seen the TV previews and they only specify Nick Cage as the lead actor.     And just the 30 second TV spot gives me goosebumps.

Who plays Maggies Dad?    I'm going to guess the absurd.....Randy Quaid? 


OK,  now you've made me curious.  I'll have to go over to IMDb and look.

David:
OMG NO!       That is twisted!

Katie77:
I saw a short of it and I think I saw the bloke who played Old man Twist...


Is that right?

Aloysius J. Gleek:
You're all so clever. Peter McRobbie, of course.

Here's more WTC IMDb trivia:

After seeing his performance in the film, Crash (2004/I), Maggie Gyllenhaal recommended Michael Pena for the role of Officer William Jimeno.


As part of his research, Michael Pena moved into Officer William Jimeno's home in New Jersey.


Due to her infamous quote that "America is responsible in some way" for the 9/11 attacks, Maggie Gyllenhaal personally offered to withdraw from the project to Officer William Jimeno and his wife Allison Jimeno. They both declined and gave their blessing for Gyllenhaal to take the role.
