Out of those I'd say DDL has the best range although I'd still put Gary Oldman above him along with Di Caprio.

not saying it doesn't exist, I'm just ignorant if it does, but what comedic roles has DDL done?

Why do you think he's better than Brando?

carthage PLEASE PROTECT ME STONES

Nicholson, Oldman, De Niro, Brando

Someone of those four, give it a few more decades and Dicaprio will likely be counted amongst those names

Tom Hardy, Jack Nicholson, Brad Pitt, and Leo DiCap are my tops.

Nicholson is probably the best, though my personal favorite is Pitt.

Oldman's my favorite actor and his range is most impressive to me, even in not top-shelf films, his acting/characters stand out.

I don't particularly think Brando is amazing, he's done some fantastic work at times, but he seems to come off boorish and heavy in his style many a time.

for me its a tossup between Daniel Day Lewis or Gary Oldman, I haven't seen many other actors actually change their speech patterns and mannerisms for a role like these guys have. Most "actors" play a certain type of personality, even greats such as Jack Nicholson do this most of the time; theres a huge difference between actor and star and these two are prime example of what a textbook definitive actor really is.
