From here on, Cusack alternated mega-movies with smaller, more personal projects. He played reporter John Kelso, verbally jousting with Savannah smoothie Kevin Spacey in Midnight In The Garden Of Good And Evil (he ... found time for a relationship with director Clint Eastwood's actress daughter Alison - he's also dated Claire Forlani and Lili Taylor).

Cusack’s performance garnered an Independent Spirit Award nomination in the category of Best Actor. Cusack ... co-starred in "Cradle Will Rock," an ensemble drama written and directed by Tim Robbins for Touchstone Pictures.
