Poll: Best Portrayal of Adolf Hitler

A poll by goddangwatir
Adolf Hitler was a German politician and leader of the Nazi Party. Perhaps the most hated man who ever lived, he is most infamous for initiating the largest armed conflict in human history, World War II, and being central to the perpetration of countless genocides, most notably the Holocaust. He ruled Germany, as dictator, from 1933 to 1945.

There have been many powerful performances over the decades which show a glimpse in the life of the totalitarian despot. With that being said, what actor gave the most terrifying, most intriguing or simply greatest portrayal of who some would call evil himself ?
