    The best part about this whole film is that Bonnie Bedelia revealed in a later interview (maybe after Alan’s death) that Alan Rickman was a genuinely sweet kind and gentle man who she ate lunch with nearly every day on set. But...when the cameras rolled, he could become one of cinema’s all time best villains.

    I love how utterly well-crafted the early portion of Die Hard is. We're so used to the idea of the criminal mastermind in fiction. We think of the criminal mastermind as a cackling Bond villain with a secret lair and an army of henchmen in matching jumpsuits. Or perhaps instead a sort of modern-day Robin Hood: a gentleman thief with a code of honour who strikes out against the rich and powerful.
    Hans Gruber is really neither of these things. He is a genuinely brilliant criminal, and he's willing to be polite and friendly when his situation permits. But it's ultimately all a cover. Beneath the suave suit and the facade of the gentleman scholar is an utterly ruthless killer. He's not some romantic suave super criminal, he's just a consummate career criminal looking at a big payday who is willing to go to any length in order to achieve his goals.

      Oddly enough, Rickman, along with Anthony Hopkins, were linked to the role of Augustus Trevelyan when GoldenEye was in early pre-production and Timothy Dalton was still technically Bond, but he turned it down due to being fed up of being typecast as the bad guy. I think either he and Hopkins would of killed it as a Bond baddie.
