German (anti-)heroes in international films?

Currently, I am conducting a series of seminars and workshops for academic job-seekers in Munich. We talk about intercultural communication and cooperation. This week, one of the participants, a Bavarian theologian was asking about how German film heroes influence what people all over the world think about Germans. However, very quickly, we ran short of examples…
What German heroes in Hollywood, Bollywood or other international productions do you know? (How) did these film figures shape your picture of Germany and / or the Germans?
Please share your thoughts!
