<p dir="auto">Field Marshal Erwin Rommel.<br />
I know, I know, except for the Britishness, and the current age, and the whole Monty Python thing.<br />
Other than that, I have always pictured Mr. Palin with short-cropped hair and an Iron Cross at his neck, playing in the (nonexistent) ultimate tribute film to the ultimate soldiers' general.<br />
Just sayin'.  Get Jrgen Prochnow some dialogue to overdub, and there you have it.<br />

<p dir="auto">It's the miracle of the interwebnetz: you can sh!t on someone from the safety of a dimly-lit room in a basement, whereas in real life you'd never get away with such talk in face-to-face conversation.<br />
Unless you're talking about 9/11 troofers - they don't count.  You can snap judge them all you want.<br />
Did you happen to watch any of "Around the World in 80 Days"?  Brilliant the man is <em>deep</em>.<br />
Again, I wab68s just waxing psychotic about Palin playing Rommel, simply based on abstract looklikedness.  But it would be cool to finally have a  modern, realistic film about the Desert Fox.<br />

<p dir="auto">it's amazing what one can discover when one forgoes that snap judgement and actually listens to people <img src="https://filmglance.com/discuss/assets/plugins/nodebb-plugin-emoji/emoji/android/1f642.png?v=8570fb93240" class="not-responsive emoji emoji-android emoji--slightly_smiling_face" style="height:23px;width:auto;vertical-align:middle" title=":)" alt="🙂" /><br />
He might actually pull that role off; I think he's a much better dramatic actor than people give him credit for.<br />

Really?  Well, thanks for reading my entire post, and then taking a look at some pictures.<br />

<p dir="auto">My first impulse was to scoff, but upon looking closely at an image of the Desert Fox, I find myself agreeing with you.  I can see a resemblance, especially around the eyes.<br />
My dream role for Mr. Palin is to see him as a character i16d0n a Charles Dickens film adaptation, such as Mr. Micawber or Mr. Dick.<br />
