Your Favorite Characters

I've forgotten some: the full & unabridged list.

1. Edward Norton's character in Fight Club (The Narrator)


"I felt like putting a bullet between the eyes of every panda that wouldn't screw to save its species.
I wanted to open the dump valves on oil tankers and smother all the French beaches I'd never see. I wanted to destroy something beautiful."

2. Tom Hanks as Forrest Gump



"I may not be a smart man.. But I know what love is."

3. John Travolta & Samuel L. Jackson as Vincent Vega & Jules Winnfield



"Oh, man. I just shot Marvin in the face."
"Why the f__k did you do that?!"

4. Michael Caton as Darryl Kerrigan in The Castle



"Compulsorily acquired? Compulsorily acquired? You know what this means, don't you? They're acquiring it compulsorily!"

5. Jake Gylenhaal as Anthony Swofford in Jarhead



"A story: A man fires a rifle for many years, and he goes to war. And afterward he turns the rifle in at the armory, and he believes he's finished with the rifle. But no matter what else he might do with his hands, love a woman, build a house, change his son's diaper; his hands remember the rifle."

Talk of favorite characters, and Burt Lancaster is the first to come to my mind as ex-boxer-turned-robber "The Swede" in his first film The Killers (1946); that Army legend of the "tough but fair" sergeant as 1st Sgt. Warden in From Here to Eternity (1953); crippled trapeze aerialist Mike Rubble in Trapeze (1956), which drew on his early circus training; Starbuck in The Rainmaker (1956); and especially as Elmer Gantry (1960).

Interesting Choice...

Lynch is one of my favorite directors and I love Eraserhead, but, why pick Henry as a favorite character?
