Marlon Brando - Possibly one of the most talented actors of all time.

Vivien Leigh - The beautiful Vivien Leigh is the mistress of human emotions, very expressive. She was convincingly insane in A Streetcar Named Desire. That might have had something to do with her being bipolar in real life, but that's pure talent nontheless!

Barbara Stanwyck - Nobody can touch Babsie when it comes to playing the sneering, vindictive woman!

Jack Nicholson - Has any other male actor come as close to capturing the essence of insanity on screen as Nicholson? Jacky boy is as convincing in his portayal of mental illness as Leigh.

Anthony Hopkins - Self-explanatory!

This list is prone to change. Other honourable mentions; Heath Ledger, Michelle Pfeiffer, Jim Carey, Bette Davis. Naomi Watts almost made it. Loved her in Mullholland Dr. And Monique gets a thumbs up from me for her performance in Precious as an abusive, obese, slug for a mother!
