    My vote goes to two:
    Francisco Scaramanga
    Franz Sanchez

    Scaramanga was the highest paid assassin in the world. He was coldly good at his job and he managed to schmooz the Chinese into giving him that island complete with all the creature comforts.

    Sanchez because he had worked his way up to a top position in his own drug empire (no small feat) He successfully bribed politicians and law enforcement. His weakness: a woman. Lupe set events in motion when she ran away and he came after her. I do not penalize him too much. He is not the first powerful man to fall for a pretty face.

    Good choices there. I concur. Plus the American gangster John Dillinger's downfall was at the hands of treacherous woman, too, outside of a theatre in July 1934.
