Compiling Script Recommendations: Characters

We are compiling lists of excellent screenplays per various categories as a resource for writers to read and analyze.

Today: Scripts notable for their characters. My recommendations:

Adaptation
Almost Famous
American Beauty
As Good As It Gets
Crying Game, The
Diner
Erin Brockovich
Finding Nemo
Forrest Gump
Graduate, The
In Bruges
Juno
Moonstruck
Office Space
Platoon
Traffic

What are your suggestions? Bear in mind, this is about scripts, so whatever movie you reference, make sure that there is a script publicly available for reading.

Tomorrow: Dialogue.
