Agree with the "Dirty Harry" speech but the best one was in front of the bank pointing his S & W at the bank robber on the sidewalk. Besides the Jimmy Stewart monologue that is posted, there should be another by him from the movie: "It's a Wonderful Life" when he gives a lecture to the grumpy town Banker. 1946. Kenneth Branaugh as King Henry V, giving the "St. Crispian Day Speech" before a battle in France. "Henry V" 1989. George C. Scott as "Patton" in the opening scene of the movie. 1970. David Niven in "The Guns of Navarone", just before the operation when he finds his explosives have been tampered with. 1961 Henry Fonda replying to George Peppard in "How the West Was Won" about "Injuns" and the Railroad company and promises. 1962. Richard Attenborough, speaking in the Sergeant's Mess in the movie "Guns at Batasi". 1964.

Burgess Meredith was a great!

The greatest monologue I've seen in a film happens in Last Tango In Paris when Marlon Brando sits beside his wife who had just committed suicide several days earlier and he's trying to understand why she did it and to tries to fathom the mystery of their relationship. I think it's his finest performance, surpassing that in The Godfather. There's something raw and revealing about this moment as a man spirals downwards. He berates her, curses her, and finally crumbles into tears at her death. Burgess Meredith was great. I don't know if he ever won an Oscar over course of his remarkable career or if he was nominated for his outstanding performance in Rocky but he deserved it. He was among the great character actors who tend to get overlooked. As great as the "I'm mad as hell" speech is I think the monologue by Ned Beatty later in Network tops it. It's chilling, especially when Beatty says, "YOU WILL ATONE!!!" Howard Beale looks like a little kid being admonished by the principal of his school.

These are some great monologues, absolutely. But for a list of ELEVEN monologues I'm surprised not to see a single woman... Elizabeth Taylor, Katharine Hepburn, Sally Field, Viola Davis, Meryl Streep, American Ferrera have all delivered some of the most famous monologues of all time. Just something to consider if you make more compilations.

As Gomer Pyle said.. Surprise, Surprise, Surprise.

I miss my mother . I miss my father. You don’t know how lucky you are if you have either .

How about Robin William’s Carpe Diem monologue in “Dead Poet’s Society” ‘"They're not that different from you, are they? Same haircuts. Full of hormones, just like you. Invincible, just like you feel. The world is their oyster. They believe they're destined for great things, just like many of you, their eyes are full of hope, just like you. Did they wait until it was too late to make from their lives even one iota of what they were capable? Because, you see gentlemen, these boys are now fertilizing daffodils. But if you listen real close, you can hear them whisper their legacy to you. Go on, lean in. Listen, you hear it? - - Carpe - - hear it? - - Carpe, carpe diem, seize the day boys, make your lives extraordinary."

Great list! The only one that is missing is Talk Radio Barry Champlain's (eric bogosian) last monologue. I think it's very relevant today to the hate that is spewed on social media today.

Stage actors have been doing this for hundreds of years. Doesn't make it any less impressive though.

Here's another, from "It's A Wonderful Life": "Just a minute - just a minute. Now, hold on, Mr. Potter. Just a minute. Now, you're right when you say my father was no business man. I know that. Why he ever started this cheap, penny-ante Building and Loan, I'll never know. But neither you nor anybody else can say anything against his character, because his whole life was -- Why, in the twenty-five years since he and Uncle Billy started this thing, he never once thought of himself. Isn't that right, Uncle Billy? He didn't save enough money to send Harry to school, let alone me. But he did help a few people get outta your slums, Mr. Potter. And what's wrong with that? Why -- here, you're all businessmen here. Don't it make them better citizens? Doesn't it make them better customers? You, you said that they -- What'd you say just a minute ago? They had to wait and save their money before they even thought of a decent home. Wait? Wait for what?! Until their children grow up and leave them? Until they're so old and broken-down that -- You know how long it takes a workin' man to save five thousand dollars? Just remember this, Mr. Potter, that this rabble you're talking about, they do most of the working and paying and living and dying in this community. Well, is it too much to have them work and pay and live and die in a couple of decent rooms and a bath? Anyway, my father didn't think so. People were human beings to him, but to you, a warped, frustrated old man, they're cattle. Well, in my book he died a much richer man than you'll ever be." In the end, the Mr. Potters won, but the Harry Baileys put up one hell of a fight.

Have the Potters won? The game's not over. From the late 1800's to the early 1900's the Potter's were winning big, but the Baileys of the world kicked some ass. Today, the Potters are winning again, but I haven't heard any fat lady singing. The world used to be ruled by kings and lords and "noblemen", they are mostly humbled and powerless now. The fight goes on and probably always will as the Potters will never give up - neither can we. To quote Walt Whitman: "Oh me! Oh life! of the questions of these recurring, Of the endless trains of the faithless, of cities fill’d with the foolish, Of myself forever reproaching myself, (for who more foolish than I, and who more faithless?) Of eyes that vainly crave the light, of the objects mean, of the struggle ever renew’d, Of the poor results of all, of the plodding and sordid crowds I see around me, Of the empty and useless years of the rest, with the rest me intertwined, The question, O me! so sad, recurring-What good amid these, O me, O life? Answer. That you are here-that life exists and identity, That the powerful play goes on, and you may contribute a verse." Harry and George Bailey contributed a good verse, what will yours be?
