hmmmm.....do I have to pick just one? Because I'm not going to! Captain Jack Sparrow (how could you not love him?) The Joker (as played by Heith Ledger) The Mad Hatter (2010 - Johnny Depp) Tony Stark, aka Iron Man (Robert Downey Jr.) Ronald Weasley (Rupert Grint) The Grinch (Jim Carey) Sherlock Holmes (Robert Downey Jr.) Archilles (Brad Pitt) Forest Gump (Tom Hanks) And to be completely honest, I have always loved Alice in Wonderland, the Disney cartoon.  Way to be original huh?

Terence Mann (played by James Earl Jones) in Field of Dreams.
"Ray, people will come Ray. They'll come to Iowa for reasons they can't even fathom. They'll turn up your driveway not knowing for sure why they're doing it. They'll arrive at your door as innocent as children, longing for the past. Of course, we won't mind if you look around, you'll say. It's only $20 per person. They'll pass over the money without even thinking about it: for it is money they have and peace they lack. And they'll walk out to the bleachers; sit in shirtsleeves on a perfect afternoon. They'll find they have reserved seats somewhere along one of the baselines, where they sat when they were children and cheered their heroes. And they'll watch the game and it'll be as if they dipped themselves in magic waters. The memories will be so thick they'll have to brush them away from their faces. People will come Ray. The one constant through all the years, Ray, has been baseball. America has rolled by like an army of steamrollers. It has been erased like a blackboard, rebuilt and erased again. But baseball has marked the time. This field, this game: it's a part of our past, Ray. It reminds of us of all that once was good and it could be again. Oh... people will come Ray. People will most definitely come"

Funny you should ask.
Has to be Catherine Banning(Thomas Crown Affair 1999) by Rene Russo. Even if the film was limited to the dance scene
In fact I played my version just this past weekend for a Birthday Party.
As I said Funny you should ask.

Loved the two sidekicks in "Oh Brother, Where art Thou" (We...thought....you....was...a....toad!)
"Patton" is probably the movie I have watched the most times....George S. was quite the rennaissance man. LOL. I guess I would pick Patton as played by George C. Scott.

Holly Golightly!! I realize that she was originally from the novella by Capote, but Audrey Hepburn made that character her own.

As an actress I would agree with Labellefille on Audrey Hepburn.....but if we look at the total arc of character development I think I need to go with Michael Corleone (Al Pacino) in Godfather I and II. The way his character develops and his icy demeanor at the end is amazing.
