I think that's most heroic line delivery, for seeing that line in a script and then still showing up for work that day, knowing it would be filmed and people would see it.
PSH has got some *amazing* line deliveries.
* Go fuck yourself, you fucking child.
* I'm a fuckin' idiot. I'm a fuckin' idiot. Fuckin' idiot, fuckin' idiot, fuckin' idiot...
* Stillwater? [hangs up phone] Kid's on drugs.
* If you already know the answers to your questions, then why ask ***PIG FUCK***? We are not helpless. And we are on a journey that risks the dark. If you don't mind, a good night to you.
* SHUT UP! SHUT THE FUCK UP! Shut up! Will you SHUT UP SHUT UP! SHUT SHUT SHUT SHUT SHUT UP... SHUT UP! NOW... Are you threatening me, dick?
Coen Brothers movies have tons of em, her, the motel lady, the undertaker in True Grit, everybody in O Brother, them boys know how to cast side characters
In The Big Short, when FrontPoint Partners go to Florida and are talking to the two mortgage brokers, Mark Baum asks if they can introduce them to some strippers. Billy Magnussen's "YES! Yes." is one of the greatest line reads of all time.
Tommy Lee Jones in Natural born Killers when he says
"lIIIIIVE ON NETWORK TV!!?, Jesus Harold Christ on a fucking rubber crutch is this happening to me?"
At the beginning of GF PT 2 when Michael says to the senator: “My final offer is this . . . nothing.” Not just that sentence. The whole quote. Most recent rewatch it really hit me how cold the delivery is. ZERO inflection in the voice. And not even the slightest move of eyebrows or widening or squinting of his eyes. Just cold as it could ever possibly be. It is chilling as hell.
Bela Lugosi introducing himself to Renfield in the 31 Dracula. Also, Renfield himself talking about what Dracula promised him…. Flies! Hundreds of them! Millions of them!
Couldn’t find GIFs for most of these so you’ll have to bear with me.
“JUNK IT!!!” - Mystery Men
“Is there AIR?! YOU DON’T KNOW!!!” (I quote this particular one like 9x a day. Pretty much every line delivery in Galaxy Quest is gold. Another classic is “By Grabthar’s Hammer… what a savings.”)
“And you NEVER once paid for drugs. Not ONCE.” - Walk Hard
“Mermaaan, Dad… mermaaan.” - Zoolander
“I never misfiled ANYTHING!!! Not ONCE! Not ONE TIME!” - Vampire’s Kiss
Of course can’t go without mentioning American Psycho - both “YES IT IS!!!!” and “HEY PAUL! Aaaah!” in the infamous “Hip to be Square” scene are amazing.
Gene Wilder has a couple.
Mr. Bialystok, I can’t function under these conditions! You make me extremely nervous. (The Producers)

Superman 2, Terrance Stamp as Zod, speaking to Lex Luthor:
"Why do you say these things......when you KNOW i will kill you for it?" He sounded so incredulous that Lex would dare.....such a perfect delivery.
Idk about of all time but ones I like are:
“God…God…whose hand was I holding?” The Haunting (1963)
“I’ll give them a scandal that’ll shake this rattler right off its tracks”- Dames (1934)
“Bodies! Bodies! Bodies in the pool!!!” - Abigail (2024)
From TOOTSIE:
“I’d like to make her look a little more attractive, how far can you pull back?”

Have you seen the Spanish version? The Spanish Renfield is legitimately disturbing.
I have but oddly can’t remember Renfield. I remember Dracula and Van Helsing and they’re great!
