Heath Ledger's performance in The Dark Knight had me thinking about other outstanding performances that I will never forget.

Maybe the movie wasn't great, but you can't forget this one character in a film. It might be a leading role; it might be a small character role. The actor is the character and it's forever branded in your brain.

Give us your most memorable character(s). Don't forget the movie title, character name and actor. Here are some that come to mind for me:

Robert DeNiro = Travis in Taxi Driver and Jake LaMotta in Raging Bull
Johnny Depp = Sam in Benny and Joon
Morgan Freeman = Red in The Shawshank Redemption
James Caan = Randall in Lady In A Cage
Laura Antonelli = Guiliana in L'Innocente
