    Samuel Gerard (Tommy Lee Jones, The Fugitive), Anton Chigurh (Javier Bardem, No Country for Old Men), Alvin Straight (Richard Farnsworth, The Straight Story).

    All 'dogged'... can you add to the list?

    Bestest dogged character is Qiu Ju in The Story of Qiu Ju. Pained character looking for Justice for her family.

    Holly Hunter and Delroy Lindo in A Life Less Ordinary. Not even the treath of death stopped them.

    Jonathon Pryce's character in Brazil by Terry Gilliam. Juggle both career and social life, a little difficult.
