Danny Devito has always been an innovative and talented actor. In the “Matilda” movie, he played Matilda’s father, a disreputable character, and also narrated the film with a cool dispassion.

In “Taxi”, when the script for one episode called for his mother to be a part of the story, Devito recommended his own real-life mother for the role. She played her part very convincingly!

True. He's done a lot of producing and directing, too.

I never cared much for "Taxi."
