After some researching I would say, your helmet is an original bascinet, which has lost its aventail.

The actor wears a sallet or burgonet. The movie plays in the year 1560 and is very recommendable: "Aguirre, the Wrath of God".

Default Holes in helmet

If you look at the holes in the helmet under a high quality low power microscope(would recommend 10x) and determine if holds are made by punching or drilling. Punching indicates older, drilling indicates newer.
