Speaking of George Clooney, his performance in "Michael Clayton" was really impressive.

Brando in a Street Car Named Desire. Hell, the man's been dead for a couple of years, but I could still feel the animalistic power coming through the tv.

So many great suggestions on there that I don't want to rehash any of them. But one omission I saw was:
Dwight Yoakam as Doyle Harvgrave in Sling Blade. I laugh my arse off every time I see the scene where he has his band over.
