Ok, I searched, but didn't see anything like this. If I missed it and this was previously posted then I apologize.
What is one of your favorite movie or television characters/roles? I'm not talking about written literature, but specifically film/television that requires an actor portraying the role. And, I'm not talking about telling us who your favorite actor is. Simply put, what character or role resonated or thoroughly entertained you more than normal and why?

I'll list both a feature film and a television role.
Movie - Doc Holiday played by Val Kilmer in "Tombstone"
I thought Holiday in this version of the Wyatt Earp story was so engaging, fascinating, and entertaining. We got to see the character in a variety of circumstances and in every setting you were drawn to him. Kilmer did a great job with the role and of course the script deserves a lot of the credit.
Television - Dexter played by Michael C. Hall in "Dexter"
If you've watched this show from season one then you know exactly what I'm talking about. It's amazing that you find yourself identifying with and actually "pulling for" a serial killer. The writing is brilliant, especially the running inner monologue and the acting is believable and engaging.
Ok, your turn.
