@rebbel – totally agree with you there! ”Caravan fo me Ma!”
Ben Kingsley as Gandhi in Gandhi.
Peter O’Toole as TE Lawrence in Lawrence Of Arabia.
Pete Postlethwaite as Kobayashi in The Usual Suspects
@rebbel – Great choice. And of course, the fight scene that ends with The Stranglers’ “Golden Brown”.
Peter Sellers as Inspector Clouseau
Charlton Heston in Touch of Evil.
Even more ridiculous, Mickey Rooney plays a Japanese man in Breakfast at Tiffany’s.
Peter Sellers as Chance, the Gardener
@filmfann Thanks man, I loved that movie but couldn’t remember the name of it, or the actor who starred in it, but now I do!
Laurence Fishburne as Dr.Larabee in Akeelah and the Bee.
@ddude1116 Really did pick the best one, Ben Kingsley in Gandhi.
Contenders:
Alan Rickman in Something the Lord Made
Scarlett Johannsson in Girl With the Peal Earring
@rebbel Being There is a great, great movie.
I’m rather fond of Craig Ferguson playing a Scottish viking. It’s got me all confused that he’s playing a Scottish Scot in Brave.
