Quinn and Welles probably something similair to what Brando did, though definitely less mannered particularly in Quinn's case. Scott and Borgnine could have been a great as well though I think they would have developed a rather different character with their performances.

It's a good bit of work from him as he brings an earnest yet rough righteous passion in his scene, and suggests really a rather interesting character that I wish we saw more of) <br /><br />Montgomery - They Were Expendable - (A fine performance, extremely straight forward but he does well as just a good military type of guy role)<br /><br />Wayne - (Standard war Wayne type but a fine enough example of it)<br /><br />Ride the Pink Horse - (A very interesting performance as he brings a coldness to the role that actually leaves it open whether or not his character is taking his action for revenge or just personal gain. His slow revelation of something else is really well handled and I pretty much love his final reaction as we see a different man coming out from his experience.)<br /><br />Muni - (Muni's overacting actually benefits from just how dull his co-star is, since it seems like Muni had to go big lest he be eaten alive by the vapidness of the film's direction.)<br /><br />I believe I've covered Grant before.
