According to
Wikipedia, there have been 15 movie adaptions of
The Hunchback of Notre Dame. I've selected what I think is the top five versions of Quasimodo. Who's your favorite? Vote in the poll to the right.
Lon Chaney, Sr. (1923)
Charles Laughton (1939)
Anthony Quinn (1956)
Anthony Hopkins (1982)
Disney (voiced by Tom Hulce) (1996)
I think the Chaney version is iconic and I love it. But, my favorite is probably Laughton. I've never seen the Quinn adaption. I remember seeing the Hopkins version when it originally aired and liked it very much. I even have it on VHS. I have to say that I also like the Disney version, even though it has been "Disneyfied".

Laughton? i voted for him!
charles laughton by far.
Laughton gets my vote as well.
Charles Laughton is the Best Quasimodo
Charles Laughton and none else. The movie isn´t quite like the book but he´s really good.
For me ,its Anthony Quinn..I grew up with that version..he isnt as qrotesque as the other versions and has an almost huggable,big brother appeal to him!
