Tuco (Eli Wallach) in The Good the Bad and the Ugly
Lance Carrilion (I think that's his name on number 5, upon seeing C3PO in pieces.)
At the first sign of a natural disaster, Dorothy flees the people who have raised her, letting them die in a hole in the ground, taking with her their only real shelter containing all their property, but not without first letting all their animals out of the barn.
She flies into foreign airspace in an unsafe aircraft, lands without a permit, and kills the leader of the land. All the while, she plays dumb and takes no responsibility for her actions. She steals the property of the woman she killed, denying their rightful owner -- the deceased's next of kin -- of the property.
She brings a live animal into the Land of Oz without regard to health restrictions, without a permit, and without making an effort to quarantine the animal. This is an animal that was already ordered to be destroyed by the legal authority in its country of origin.
Dorothy says she's from Kansas but has no documentation to back it up. When asked by the Munchkins to explain herself, she gives them a song and dance about a witch. In fact, whenever she is challenged during her visit to this country, she always seems to go into a song and dance routine.
She immediately befriends some misfits and social outcasts -- using flattery to conscript them into her service as her protectors, slaves and allies -- and makes promises to them on behalf of a man she has never met. She takes them with her on her travels through the country to reach the Emerald City.
On the way there, Dorothy poaches food and firewood from neighboring farms and camps on private property. She encourages her friends to do the same.
She enters Emerald City and gains an audience with its leader on false pretenses, displaying the stolen shoes as her own property and using them as a passport, a kind of identify theft. She puts the innocent people of Emerald City in jeopardy by attracting the witch to the city and causing panic among its citizens.
While the city panics, she and her friends take full advantage of the local beauty salon and livery cab without a moment's thought of making payment for services.
All the while, the only thing she ever does is cry, think about herself and whine that she wants to go home.
She agrees to become a hired assassin, doing the dirty work of a politician. She does this for purely selfish purposes and with no regard to the witch's rights or due process of law.
She enters the witch's property illegally by having her thugs kill the witch's security agents and steal their uniforms. She then kills the witch and claims it was an accident, even though all along it was her stated intention to hunt and kill her.
She steals property -- a broom -- from the estate of her victim as a souvenir of her crime and brings it back to the man who hired her as a killer.
Upon visiting the wizard the second time, Dorothy loses control of her unlicensed pet and enters a restricted area in the wizard's quarters.
When she discovers this leader to be a fraud, she does nothing to notify the residents of Emerald City, but becomes an accomplice in his fraud and plays along with his scheme, helping him to escape justice, and installing one of her own friends as a puppet dictator -- a man with no brain and with educational credentials fabricated by the phony wizard. This "tin man" dictator is supported by a toothless coward and a stuffed shirt.
At the first opportunity to escape, Dorothy does so, abandoning her friends and disappearing without a trace.
WM: "I had a date with her last night."
JL: "Really? Was it a stick up or a hold up?"
Travis Bickle (DeNiro) in Taxi Driver
"Loneliness has followed me my whole life. Everywhere. In bars, in cars, sidewalks, stores, everywhere. There's no escape. I'm God's lonely man."
Woody Allen to a redneck chain gang warden who asks the prisoners if they had any questions in "Take The Money And Run."
Allan: That's quite a lovely Jackson Pollack, isn't it?
Museum Girl: Yes, it is.
Allan: What does it say to you?
Museum Girl: It restates the negativeness of the universe. The hideous lonely emptiness of existence. Nothingness. The predicament of Man forced to live in a barren, Godless eternity like a tiny flame flickering in an immense void with nothing but waste, horror and degradation, forming a useless bleak straitjacket in a black absurd cosmos.
Allan: What are you doing Saturday night?
Museum Girl: Committing suicide.
Allan: What about Friday night?
