My Take
I have a real soft spot for actors like Andreas Wisniewski, the Berlin-born former dancer who became cinema's go-to elegant menace. Necros in The Living Daylights, Tony in Die Hard, a turn in Mission: Impossible. He never headlined, yet he's woven into films people quote forever. What interests me is how his dance training surely informed that lethal physical grace henchmen rarely get credit for. He's a reminder that supporting players often define a film's texture more than the leads. I'd happily watch a retrospective built entirely around his coolly precise villains.
