Paul Schofield as Sir Thomas More.
Schofield won an Oscar for Best Actor in what has become my favorite movie of all time.
As an aside, this movie helped inspire me to become a lawyer.
(Clip is 52 seconds of Schofield's brilliance)

For actual Hollywood Patton is far and above all others IMO.

I thought Renee Zellweger played Judy Garland quite well
George C. Scott as Patton is my number 1
I always thought that Jason Miller (Ara in Rudy) would have made a good Joe.

on the opposite side: Al Pacino and Joe Paterno and Tom Cruise as The Last Samurai.
To turn this inside out, al pacino can totally kiss my ass. I'll never watch another thing from that old piece of shit after his pathetic turn as the Great Joe Paterno. **** him and the horse he rode in on. And the Godfather book was better than the movies.
Asshole.
Edit: God damn it Obliviax!

I got 3 from the same movie that I thought were excellent:
Christian Bale as Dick Cheney
Steve Carell as Donald Rumsfeld
Sam Rockwell as George W. Bush

Heston as Moses and Scott as Patton were first two that popped into my mind. I also like Damian Lewis as Maj Dick Winters in Band of Brothers and Stephen Graham as Al Capone in Boardwalk Empire.
Oh, and I am also on the "F" Pacino bandwagon.

He did do a decent Kavorkian but that quality is overstated as well.
John Goodman as Fred Flintstone
Elizabeth Perkins as Wilma Flintstone
Rick Moranis as Barney Rubble
Rosie O’Donnell as Betty Rubble.

Ed Harris, as either Jackson Pollack, or (my preference) Gene Kranz.
(That, ladies and gentlemen, is what is known in the biz as "range.")

George C Scott neither looked nor sounded like Patton, though I loved him in the role
Patton speaks at about 1:05 on this video:

Actually, Kurt Russell as Herb Brooks.
Don’t you have to give this to Audie Murphy playing Audie Murphy?
