Live Poll: Poker-Faced Movie Characters
It takes some impressive acting abilities to stay emotionless during the whole film or for the most part of it. Which of these movie characters would you most hate to confront in a Poker game?

Oh and yeah, sorry Matrix and Terminator fans, but no sunglasses allowed during the game.

You know, I had many of these suggestions in mind, Alex De Large was also a possible option, but I don't know... the focal point was the ability of the characters to stay emotionless all through the film, to keep a straight stone-face any time, with a few outbursts in extreme life-and-death situations.
The fact that many of these characters smile a lot indicates more 'colorful' personalities, Lecter, Landa and Torrance (maybe the Joker, too) can be good company if you're having a nice chit-chat with them. What do you think?
Or maybe I just don't want this poll to be a retread of this one:

Also I feel like Lecter *should* be included. Remember the line about when he was hooked up to the heart monitor and when he killed a nurse his pulse never went above 72? The guy has really no emotions, except for love of pain in others. The TV show just emphasized that behavior (or lack thereof).
FYC:
Chief Bromden - One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest
Joe Cabot - Reservoir Dogs
Sameen Shaw - Person of Interest
Castiel - Supernatural (first two or three years he was on the show)
Vincent - Collateral
Daria - Daria
Neil McCauley - Heat
Jason Bourne
Ghost Dog - Ghost Dog: The Way of the Samurai
Leon - The Professional
Hit-Girl - Kick-Ass
Wednesday Addams - The Addams Family
Margo Tenenbaum - The Royal Tenenbaums
Madeleine - Spectre
Spock

'Good intro, too, but I tripped a bit over "for the most part of it." This is just a suggestion:

It's a good intro either way. I was thinking I'd hate to play poker with Anton Chigurh the most but now I'm thinking Michael Corleone.

The woman from Rebecca is classic, but the underlying lesbian creepiness of her character almost makes it campy.
