Used to have a quarterhorse named Doc after Kilmer's character - had a white patch on his face and one blue eye.

Duvall, and Jones were great. It was kinda cool after Woodrow Call beat the crap outta that guy with some kind of iron rod, he announces "I will not tolerate rudeness in a man."

That's a lot more difficult than favorite actor...
I'm guessing you mean which actor simply nailed it for one character?
To name just one is a challenge. Gant is definitely among tge top. If I watch Jaws is because of that character.
Forest Gump : the character was completely likeable and Hanks was that guy. It could not have been pulled off any better by anyone.
Gunny Hartman, Full Metal Jacket: Ermy got type cast but he reflected the fullness of a good DI,DS better than anyone Ive ever seen.
Patton: George C Scott so fulfilled that role (I'd been watching the movie since it first aired on television when i was pretty young) that I was disappointed when i later discovered the actual figures appearance.
Rocky : the first movie in particular, Stallone introduced us to a character i don't think anyone else could. Plenty of folks could play a boxer, but I don't think anyone else could be Rocky.

Dynamite, Denzel Washingtons Equalizer, Tom Hanks Saving Private Ryan, Gregory Pecks Atticus Finch, from To Kill a Mockingbird, the general that George C. Scott portrayed in Dr. Strangelove. Love the quote,"Doomsday bomb? Gee I wish we had one of those." Lots of great characters.

Heath Ledger's Joker
Robert Downey Jr.'s Tony Stark
Jimmy Stewart's George Bailey (also Donna Reed as Mary)
Some people aren't fans but I think Adam Driver played well a good character in Kylo Ren. I don't think the three movies lived up to the originals, but the character Kylo Ren was interesting.

Heath Ledger made that character, but Joaquin Phoenix made the movie. Joker was a psycho analytic deep dive into that character. "It was scary good"
