I discovered him as Mr. Dimitri, August in 'Once and Again'..For those who know and have seen the series, everything is said
Highly recommended for the people who (suspect that they) love Mr. Stoltz:) -

Eric Stoltz was fantastic in Once and Again. He made you understand why Grace had a crush on Mr. Dimitri, her teacher. Not to mention, Eric Stoltz and Julia Whelan, who played Grace, had fantastic chemistry which made the whole situation all the more believable. Also, the monologue where he tells Grace the truth in the episode, The Gay/Straight Alliance
( http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0hPm0TscljY&feature=related ) that was awesome. What was also realistic was her mother's (Sela Ward)reaction. It was all very believable and ended the way it should have. It m5b4ade you long for what could have happened between Mr. Dimitri and Grace had they been in different circumstances. It kind of reminds me of the movie Beautiful Girls where Tim Hutton finds himself liking the teenage kid next door, Natalie Portman, but not in a creepy way. -

So true! I mean, I had no idea he was ever on that show and I only knew of it vaguely. But he was really intriguing to watch - and very realistic in that kind of position (creative writing professor), I can say that from experience. Anyway, it's a shame I never saw the series when it aired. And sadly only a couple of bits and pieces made in onto Youtube.. they had such great chemistry I would have loved to see all of their scenes together.
I carry your heart; I carry it in my heart. -

There were only 7 episodes of the season 3 they were in together, and they are all on Youtube, as far as I could see.
I just love the fact that it was not over-dramatized. I mean, of course, their story was dramatic and intense, but not in a soap-like way. One easy way to kill the magic was to let them get really close and, of course, get caught by the good daddy Jake, just to name something:) No, happily, the creators were allowed the luxury of subtlety and nuance. It is also a rich story, backed by all other stories mentioned and hinted, commented by them. Enravelling these allusions can be really fascinating, too.
It feels stupid recommending fanfiction, I know, but I myself was surprised that it is sometimes worth it. In the case of O&A, and Grace and Mr. Dimitri:)

Once & Again was a great bonding experience for a number of Eric Stoltz fans! As any of the group who were on TWoP can tell you.we spend a year or two of our lives obssessing about him. One of his best roles ever.
O&A had a real devouted group - they even paid for a billboard right in front of the station asking for it not to be cancelled. The only other TV show I have been as devouted to since has been Lost.
Such great memories!!!
Now I have seen just about everything Eric has been in and he has a fan for life. Just look at my ID! -

do a search online. you can download it. Normally, I wouldn't advocate you don't pay for something but in this case, the last season of O&A is not available for sale. So if the people who own the rights don't want to make money off of it, then why shouldn't fans share it for free
