Who did it best?
Marlon Brando as Sakini (Is that even a name?) in the 1956 film “The Teahouse of the August Moon”.
Mickey Rooney in “Breakfast at Tiffany’s”. Imagine if an actor tried to pull this off today. The SJWs would have his bucktoothed head.
Ricardo Montalbán as kabuki actor Nakamura in the 1957 film adaptation of James Michener’s novel Sayonara.
Sean Connery as 007 in the 1967 spy film “You Only Live Twice”.
