I love Tim Robbins in the Shawshank Redemption, also, and who couldn't resist Rhett Butler..Still Indy, takes the cake for me. Everyone has such wonderful comments.

He finds the treasures for the joy of finding them and protecting them from the bad guys. I love the duality of his character, running through the jungle one moment, chased by mad natives, and the next quietly teaching a college class of archaeology students. I love Indy in those movies.

I do like Hiro, from the TV show Heroes--there is something about the reluctant hero that is so appealing. The humanity and vulnerability the reluctance creates is key. Who else? Rhett Butler! He's rico suave, in such a good way, and he and Scarlet O'Hara are so well matched. And then there's Mr. Darcy from Pride and Prejudice (especially when played by Colin Firth--Love him!). Nope, I definitely can't narrow it down to one. But I'll keep searching. ;-) I don’t think I could choose just one “all time favorite” either, and both Tim Robbin’s character (I JUST saw The Shawshank Redemption for the very first time a few weeks ago) and Harrison Ford as Indianna Jones are at the top of my list.

An innocent man sent to prison for 20 years who manages to retain his humanity and love of life so much that by the end he can appreciate the rain on this face, the beauty of the ocean, and the feel of a hard work in the sun. And still take time to leave money for a friend he knows is going to need it. While I can’t commit to “all time,” I think Tim Robinson’s character in Shawshank Redemption is a favorite.
