How about this image for Nazi Protagonist?

It's a TV poster for Conspiracy, a historical drama about the Wannsee Conference. It depicts Kenneth Branagh as Reinhard Heydrich and Stanley Tucci as Adolf Eichmann, the two men in charge of organizing the Holocaust. It's immediately obvious that they're the protagonists. It features a Nazi flag in the background, they're both wearing SS uniforms, they both get a Malevolent Mugshot, and the text in the poster directly alludes to Nazi war crimes.

[up] I'm getting a "no hotlinking" message when I click on that.

Would any of these be clear enough? 1, 2, 3

Here's another version, a DVD cover of the same poster.

I'm not so sure about Valkyrie. They do look like Nazis at first glance, but the entire conceit of the film is that they are fighting against the Nazi Party and trying to assassinate Hitler. Which is why they're probably not listed on the page, for that matter.

[up][up]I like the second one the most.

[up]Also good.

I'd so want an image from Schindler's List, but I didn't find any good ones.

Valkyrie definitely won't work, Stauffenberg "...never became a member of the party."

@3 is good for me. Valkyrie is not so good.

Shall I add it to the page then, or do we need more discussion/are there more suggestions?

That DVD cover looks pretty good to me.

[up] We generally wait for more than four votes for an image before putting it on the page.

One or two more votes and we can run with 3.
