 Egotistical and ambitious, Landa takes a great deal of pride in his fearsome reputation, his nickname "the Jew hunter" and using it to compare himself to Reinhard Heydrich.When the tide of the war turns against the Nazis, he scoffs at it, alluding that his job is to find and capture people and the fact that they are Jews is of no consequence to him.Landa is intelligent, opportunistic, arrogant, ruthless, and relentless, but can also be circumspect, polite, and even charming.
