Peter Sellers--"Being There"
Gary Oldman--"Sid & Nancy"
Al Pacino--"Dog Day Afternoon"
Marlon Brando--no comment
Robert Carlyle--"Trainspotting", at least from what little I saw of it...
Clint Eastwood--"The Good, The Bad & The Ugly"
Morgan Freeman--"Street Smart" (very intense...)
Samuel L. Jackson--"Pulp Fiction" ("..it's the one that says bad mutherfucker!")
Tim Roth--hmmm...really, really love this guy, but can't remember much of what I've seen him in...so I'll say "Resevoir Dogs" for now...
Steve Buscemi..."Resevoir Dogs" here, too
Sean Penn..."Falcon & The Snowman"...

God I need to watch more films...

I don't think Ive seen any of the ones listed. Or if I have, they aren't memorable.

But then Im really fussy with films. Not many grab my attention.
