Overall summary of Anton Chighur

Throughout the film we come to learn many things about the main character Anton Chighur. We even learn from the opening scene that he is a very one toned man. This one tone makes him seem very serious, polite and calm, however we soon learn that this is really not the case. When Chighur is about to attack on his prey he sounds very rehearsed and relaxed, even though he knows he is about to kill them.
Anton Chighur basially dresses all in dark, black clothing. This colour of clothing represents that he is a very brutual, cold hearted killer that has shows no signs of remorse. He also has a very unusual haircut which makes us the viewers think suspiciously of him as he looks a bit mysterious.
 He also doesn't show any feelings or facial expressions throughout the film. Everytime that he is presented, he always has a very blank and calm face. He stays very still whilst talking, shows no gestures or greetings and seems to question people on the spot. An example of this would be when he trys to decide an inocent man's future on a coin as he approaches him in his shop.
Below is a clip that I found on you-tube that shows the scene in the shop.
