Question: Are this film's Zodiac killer and the Scorpio Killer in "Dirty Harry" based on the same person?
Chosen answer: Scorpio is loosely based on the Zodiac killer, yes. However, "Zodiac" is made to portray the hunt for the real-life Zodiac killer (as accurately as possible), with only a few ficticious elements thrown in for the sake of story-telling, while "Dirty Harry" is pure fiction.

Answer: As an aristocratic Lithuanian family living in a castle, the Lecters would probably not have still been living there by the time of the German occupation when the film starts. That's because the Soviet Union invaded and annexed the three Baltic states in 1940 (including Lithuania) and deported many so-called 'class enemies' to 'special settlements', many of which were in remote or internal regions of the USSR. The Lecters would have likely been gone by the time Nazi Germany invaded in 1941, let alone 1944 when they were retreating. Author Thomas Harris and the subsequent film screenwriters overlooked this obvious historical fact when writing the story.
Question: When Peter pauses the world, the dwarf is easily seen making an expression. How come?
