Applauded, But Wrong

List actors who were well regarded in roles they were wrong for.

Vivian Leigh in Gone with the Wind: Too pretty. In the book, Scarlett is not beautiful.

Audrey Hepburn in Breakfast at Tiffanies: Too old. And too prissy.

Mae West in everything: Too old and dumpy to be the girl every man wanted.

Liza Minnelli in Cabaret. Sally Bowles is supposed to be a mediocre talent who can't sing.

I've heard that Vivian Leigh's southern accent was not good (in "Gone with the Wind"). My ear for that is not good, so I can't tell.
