    Ron Jeremy, by far a hero and inspiration, in any 'Adult' role he plays.

    Clint Eastwood - Grand Torino

    Great shout.
    Emperor's new clothes. Even if you do think Gran Torino is great, Unforgiven is a better performance!

    Sam Rockwell in Moon, playing two different parts of a character arc simultaneously. Brilliant.

    Al Pacino as Michael corleone.. The subtlety in the complete transformation his character undertakes is amazing

    Daniel day Lewis as Daniel Plainview

    Cliché and perhaps not "adult" enough for some - but Heath Ledger's Joker was impeccable for me.

    Shut up, cunt. You louse. You got some fuckin' neck ain't you. Retired? Fuck off, you're revolting. Look at your suntan, it's leather, it's like leather man, your skin. We could make a fucking suitcase out of you. Like a crocodile, fat crocodile, fat bastard. You look like fucking Idi Amin, you know what I mean? Stay here? You should be ashamed of yourself. Who do you think you are? King of the castle? Cock of the walk?

    A bit of a fan of the method actors so I'd agree with Bale in The Machinist or Deniro in Raging Bull.

    I've also really been impressed with Christoph Waltz stuff lately.

    Michael Owen for his superb career-long impersonations of a player being fouled in the penalty area.
    (With Christian's brother Gareth a close second).

    Al Pacino as Michael Corleone is probably my favouite
    But agree Heath Ledger as The Joker was sublime, the best study of proper malevolence I have ever seen
    Also have to shout for Tom Hanks in Forrest Gump and Gene Hackman in The French Connection
