Who cold forget the king of dual roles:
Peter Sellers as President Muffley, Mandrake, and Dr Strangelove in Dr. Strangelove: Or How I learned to Stop Worrying and Love the Bomb

and everyone in Monty Python and the Holy Grail, since they all played like 8 roles

Great call on Peter Sellers, SCARFACE...I also admired his trio of personas in Kubrick's LOLITA as well.

My favorite would have to be Alec Guinness in Kind Hearts and Coronets, where he played at least seven roles as far I can remember.

Jack Lemmon in Some Like it Hot. One of my favorite performances from one of my favorite actors.

I thought we were listing the best, not the worst.

ARTO, I rate Geena's LONG KISS GOODNIGHT performance as one of the five best of 1996. She was all at once: tough, sexy, sympathetic and funny. I was with her all the way in this fast-paced, fun action thriller. At least it wasn't pretending to be a meaningful, existential film (like the recent WINDTALKERS or any of Spielberg's recent crap).
