Memorable characters from movies and television are sometimes not played by the lead actors. In fact, the best films and shows, in my opinion, have charismatic parts for actors in minor roles. My list contains both main and minor players but it’s not all that long. Can anyone add to it or disagree with it, maybe? Additions from serious drama would be welcome.
