A page from an autograph album signed in person by Christoph Waltz, the double Oscar-winning Austrian actor, primarily active in the United States, who gained international recognition for his portrayal of villainous and supporting roles in English-language films. After a substantial career in German television and theatre, Waltz's American breakthrough role came in Quentin Tarantino's 2009 film Inglourious Basterds, in which he played Hans Landa, winning the Academy Award for Best Supporting Actor. He collaborated with Tarantino again in Django Unchained (2012), for which he earned his second Academy Award for Best Supporting Actor, this time for his performance as a bounty hunter named Dr. King Schultz. He has also starred in Carnage (2011), The Zero Theorem (2013), Big Eyes (2014), Downsizing (2017), Alita: Battle Angel (2019), and The French Dispatch (2021).
