Klaus Kinski
Klaus Kinski was a German actor. Equally renowned for his intense performance style and his notoriously eccentric and volatile personality, he appeared in over 130 film roles in a career that spanned 40 years, from 1948 to 1988. He is best known for starring in five films directed by Werner Herzog from 1972 to 1987, who would later chronicle their tumultuous relationship in the documentary My Best Fiend.
