This is the Iconic Characters that will never be forgotten.
Our first Iconic character is: Francis Begbie
Francis Begbie
Now this character is a perfect example of some one you'd love to hate: Trainspotting's Begbie. His tone, his view on life and his attitude in general towards his mates, just goes to show you how not to live your life. Robert Carlyle helps to portray this character as the shallow and ignorant man that he is, helping to symbolise the man against change of life
Our next character is the infamous Mr Blonde:
Mr Blonde
Now we deal with a pure sadist. Reservoir Dogs: Mr Blonde is most known for the infamous Ear-cutting scene in which he cuts a police officer's ear off just for fun. Michael Madsen portrays this character as the proud, vain and disturbingly comic man that he is.
Next up is Gunnery Sergeant Hartman:
Gunnery Sergeant Hartman
Renowned for Full Metal Jacket. Gunnery Sergeant Hartman (portrayed by R. Lee Ermey) is a cold hearted drill instructor in the US Marine Corps. He is cruel, vulgar and yet entertainingly funny. Unfortunately, he got shot by Private Pile.
Next is Tony montana (more known as Scarface):
Tony Montana
Even if you haven't seen Scarface, you must've heard of him. The man who began as a small time Cuban punk to later on become the boss of a major Cocaine empire. You must've heard of him even the famous quote "Say hello to my little friend" will put the image above into your head. Tony Montana is, arguably the most iconic film character ever. His attitude to everyone and his vulgarity help to show how amazing he is. His portrayal was done by Al Pacino and this was his most iconic role.
Up next we have Travis Bickle:
Travis Bickle
The taxi driver from Taxi Driver. Travis Bickle is a man who got sick and tired of the scum in his city. During the film we slowly see him lose his mind and get more and more annoyed at the drug dealers and the pimps. Portrayed by Robert De Niro, this is a character who slowly breaks down and ends up becoming a hero as a consequence.
Up next is Verbal Kint:
Verbal Kint
The cripple from Bryan Singer's "The Usual Suspects" portrayed by Kevin Spacey. He is extremely talkative and is in fact the villain. At the end of the film it turns out that he is Keyser Soze, he is so iconically known due to the famous ending of the film, in which he's limping away and then began walking normally. This simple change in movement helps to show how everything he said was a lie.
Up next we have Derek Vinyard:
Derek Vinyard
The noted character from Tony Kaye's "American History X". Portrayed by Edward Norton. This character is a symbol for changing your views. Originally, he was a person who wasn't too bothered about immigrants but, after his father died, he became a member of a white power skinhead group. He then went to prison for murder and after getting raped by fellow skinheads, he gave up on that way of life and has accepted those people for not being white.
Standby for more.
