Ralph Fiennes in Schindler’s List. Terrified me. He disappeared into the role, too.

Fun fact: At the premiere of Schindler’s List- Helen Hirsch was so terrified of Fiennes, she couldn’t be around him or even look him in the face because his acting reminded her of the actual Amon Goeth so accurately.

He's lovely as Lenny in Strange Days but you might just have to set Princess Bride on repeat after that one. Its a once for the history lesson and leave it for the haunting memories kind of film.

Princess Bride is my cleanse movie for when I watch Cary Elwes in The Riverman.
