My personal favorite has always been Edward G. Robinson snarling his way through "The Ten Commandments." He is so far out of place with his NY gangster accent that it is hilarious.
After that, I suppose I liked Harry Dean Stanton as Saul (pre-road to Damascus Paul) in "The Last Temptation of Christ"....who delivers the best line in that film when he asks the ressurected Lazurus "Which is better? Death or life?" The next best line was the answer from Lazurus..."I was a little surprised... wasn't that much difference."
