These two actors should be in a Bond movie

Just saw the film BLACK BOOK, a WW2 drama directed by Paul Verhoeven (Robocop, Basic Instinct). It's a very good film. The two main leads -- Carice van Houten and her real-life offscreen companion Sebastian Koch -- play a Dutch Jewish woman and the Nazi SS officer she is sent to spy on before falling in love with him. Both are very strong actors and have the right look for a Bond movie.

Carice van Houten is 30 and Dutch. Here's her IMDB listing:

If they ever need someone to play an Eastern bloc lover for Bond, she'd be great for it. And, after Eva Green, you need actresses who are sexy but not bimbos. She's a brunette offscreen but blonde and red-haired in Black Book. Pics can be found at:

Sebastian Koch was especially good, imbuing one of the worst kinds of real-life villains (a Nazi SS commander) with humanity and soul. He looks a lot like Jeroen Krabbe from his LIVING DAYLIGHTS days. Here's a very Bond villain pic of him:
