Performances that had the actor have a lot of free reign with their dialogue and/or character look/behavior. What are some that you know of?
For example:
R.Lee Ermey - Full Metal Jacket Marlon Brando - Apocalypse Now

Many scenes in Cape Fear (1991) were improvised.

The abomination that is The Blair Witch Project
The actors were given no more than a 35-page outline of the mythology behind the plot, before shooting began. All lines were improvised and nearly all the events in the film were unknown to the three actors beforehand, and they were often on-camera surprises to them all.
OT Although having been given a brief crash course on using the 16mm camera, Joshua Leonard struggled to focus using it for the first few days of filming. This is why the interview with Mary Brown is of such poor focus and incredibly grainy.
One of the video cameras used by the actors was bought at Circuit City. After filming was completed, the producers returned the camera for a refund.

Heath Ledger as the Joker in The Dark Knight Seriously? Why so? When he was preparing the role, Heath Ledger locked himself in a hotel room and began to formulate a diary of the Joker's mannerisms, psychology, and voice. Christopher Nolan also let direct him the video messages the Joker sent as warnings like the one where he kills a Batman impersonator.
