Big Jake1001 Posted May 12, 2013 Share Posted May 12, 2013 I met Christopher Lee in 1981. I worked in Anaheim Calif. at The Museum of World Wars. He would come in and talk with the owner , Ron Lane. He told us some stories about WWll. Nice guy. Jake Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Man From Boot Hill #71246 Posted May 12, 2013 Share Posted May 12, 2013 Mean Ol'Lady is a BIG fan of Mr. Lee. I am a close second. He and Bela Luogsi are the best dracula's on film in my opinion! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Subdeacon Joe Posted May 12, 2013 Author Share Posted May 12, 2013 I've known about his SOE experience for a while now, and his filmography. But languages? Heavy Metal? That poster I posted, other than the typo, has another mistake, though. He told Jackson that a man stabbed in the back doesn't scream the way Jackson wanted, but more like a grunt because of the punctured lung. Something like that. But it IS correct in that he didn't have to "imagine" how it sounds. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wolfgang, SASS #53480 Posted May 12, 2013 Share Posted May 12, 2013 He stated in an interview that the film "The Wicker Man" was the best film he was ever in, . .. was his own best performance . . . that he was paid nothing for it . . . . and that, . . . . "some things you do for love". Quite a guy, . . . . . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Utah Bob #35998 Posted May 13, 2013 Share Posted May 13, 2013 It's called walking the walk. Sometimes when we blast actors as weirdos and such, maybe we should give it a second thought. And when he's on screen, it sure is hard to turn away isn't it? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gunner Gatlin, SASS 10274L Posted May 13, 2013 Share Posted May 13, 2013 It's called walking the walk. Sometimes when we blast actors as weirdos and such, maybe we should give it a second thought. And when he's on screen, it sure is hard to turn away isn't it? He's from the era when actors had class - the weirdoos and such are the current breed.

Spooky Joe, SASS #24061 Posted May 13, 2013 Share Posted May 13, 2013 Bela Lugosi set the standard. Christopher Leer refined and perfected it. A remarkable gentleman. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
