The King?
Hmmm.
Heath Ledger actually went nuts.
Daniel Day Lewis cooked his own dinners and killed everything he hate on LoTM and did some crazy cool things in my left foot. Went mad in Abe I hear too.
But the kings are surely Robert de Niro (in Raging Bull) and Marlon Brando (in everything he did).

Love the story of DDL in My Left Foot when they were trying to renegotiate his contract and he wouldn't come out of character:
"Daniel!!! You're going to lose loads of money!!!"
"Mngngnghhhhh....."
"Are you listening to me!?!"
"Mmmmnnghghghhhh...."

Fair enough I say
There are few enough people who give a fuck about what they do and to get somebody who actually does what they do well and takes pride in it, I think is a positive. Especially in his industry, where wank filled doughnuts are rife; at least he fills his own (if not spelling it correctly)

I don't mind it don't get me wrong
he just fulfills all the criteria for 'wank filled donut' as far as I know. Doesn't stop me laughing at the acty wank he spews though. With all due respect.

meh, I appreciate good acting, but actors in general have a tendency to see their profession as somehow more elevated, noble and important than most when in reality most actors work on commercially-driven rather than artistically-driven projects almost all of the time.
TLDR: AaC.
