And he's the mother of grief
There's only sorrow for tomorrow
Surely life is too brief

RIP

Great actor with a great command within and over his voice. It always drew me in even when he played minor roles.

Time to a marathon run of his movies as a homage to him as a person and actor. Where to start?

I loved those Hammer Horror Dracula movies when I was a kid!

I think 'Wiccar Man' might a good place to start. Don't forget Hammer's 'Hound of the Baskervilles' too.
Lee will always be the face of my perceived Dracula. His role as Sarumon is also classic. Another one of my cinematic icons gone.
RIP Mr Lee.

`But I don't want to go among mad people,' Alice remarked.
`Oh, you can't help that,' said the Cat: `we're all mad here. I'm mad. You're mad.'
`How do you know I'm mad?' said Alice.
`You must be,' said the Cat, `or you wouldn't have come here.'

I loved to hate his Saruman in those movies. He was a perfect villain.

I really do need to find his "Jinnah" at some point, partly out of respect for CEMB but mostly out of respect for Lee because he told us it was his best performance.

If you can get over Moore's eyebrow raising acting, his role as Mr Scaramanga in 'The man with the Golden Gun' is also another classic Lee performance. The Bond chick Brit Ekland is also really hot in it too.
Fun fact she also co starred along side Lee in 'The Wiccar Man'.

I watched The Man with the Golden Gun earlier. It was the first one on my list that I didn't need to download. Brit Ekland is Swedish.
