That would be good, except he was a real person. I think the video's emphasizing human imagination of evil rather than actual evil.
Of course, Bill the Butcher and Nicky Santoro were also based on historical people, but in their movies, their evil tendencies were exaggerated to the point where they were arguably different characters altogether. From what I've read, Amon Goeth's depiction in Schindler's List was more or less spot-on.
Brilliant work, thanks for this. I can never dislike Hannibal Lecter though, I don't know why. Kinsky as Aguirre: brilliant, you do know your stuff. And Alex de Large is one of my favourite characters.
BRILLIANT WORK! You're a man of skill and taste. The Klaus Kinski alone shows you know acting. This is one of the BEST clips I've EVER seen. Thank you.
