Legendary actor Sir Christopher Lee passed away a few days ago at the age of 93. He was a prolific actor throughout many eras. His career began in 1946, and his last his final film was Angels in Notting Hill. He will be missed. My favorite role of his is Saruman in The Lord of the Rings, but he has played many noteworthy roles, so which ones is your favorite?

He was great as Count Dooku, but I think my favorite role of his was Saruman! Very memorable!
ReplyDeleteHis best role was as Lord Summerisle in The Wicker Man (one of the great horror films).
ReplyDeleteHe was terrific for not only playing as Saruman and Count Dooku but he was Francisco Scaramanga in one of the lesser-known James Bond movies The Man With The Golden Gun.
ReplyDeleteLove him as Saruman, but I also enjoyed him as Scaramanga, as Willy Wonka's dentist father, and as the judge in Sleepy Hollow. I was super amused to see him pop up as Blind Pew in the Charlton Heston version of Treasure Island too.
ReplyDeleteI have a mini-series where he played Sherlock Holmes, but I haven't watched it yet. Hoping to start it later this week in honor of his passing.
