5 Most Awesome Dwarf Performances In Film & TV

1. Peter Dinklage As Tyrion Lannister (Game Of Thrones)

Tyrion-Lannister Unquestionably the greatest and coolest Dwarf on television these days is Peter Dinklage's Tyrion Lannister. Lannister acknowledges his role in the series as a 'hideous imp' but none the less maintains a position of incredible power during the series as well as being articulate, hilarious and - let's face it - sexy throughout. Tyrion Lannister is a classic anti-hero. He's far from squeaky clean but there's just something about him that you cannot deny is charming and likeable enough to make you root for him whenever he's on screen. He is the Stone Cold Steve Austin of the Seven Kingdoms. Shave off that silly Lego haircut and give him a can of Ye Olde Beer and the transformation would be complete. Hats off to Peter Dinklage for his portrayal of a character that in the books seems repugnant in every way. His sterling performance is worthy of all the kudos he has received and there is no wonder he is the most popular character in the entire series. We just can't think of enough nice things to say about him. It is hard to imagine a character superseding Tyrion as perhaps the greatest dwarf performance of all time.
