Is there any actor or even a person that is more based than Mr. Lee?
a shame he never did an audio book of the whole lotr trilogy. his version of the children of hurin is amazing.
Asher Smith
I don't think you understand the concept of time , Christopher Lee.
Alexander Diaz
>It turns out his experiences in warfare came in handy in the filming of The Lord of the Rings, when his character Saruman was stabbed in the back by Grima Wormtongue in a scene that was not included in the theatrical release. As director Peter Jackson explained in the movie's DVD commentary, he tried to get Lee to scream as he was stabbed, only to be corrected. "Have you any idea what kind of noise happens when somebody's stabbed in the back?" Lee said he asked Jackson. "Because I do." (For the record, it's more of a gasp because "the breath is driven out of your body," according to Lee.)

>Contrary to popular belief, Lee did not have a vast library of occult books. When giving a speech at the University College Dublin on 8 November 2011, he said: "Somebody wrote I have 20,000 books. I'd have to live in a bath! I have maybe four or five [occult books]." >He further admonished the students against baneful occult practices, warning them that he had met "people who claimed to be Satanists. Who claimed to be involved with black magic."; however, he himself had certainly never been involved: "I warn all of you: never, never, never. You will not only lose your mind, you'll lose your soul."
Wait... what?

Sebastian Mitchell

Half of all that first shit is complete bullshit. He was born in 1922. He would've had to be born in 1900 at least be alive to experience that.

TIL When Christopher Lee auditioned for the role of Saruman in "The Lord of the Rings" he only had $11 dollars to his name. When the cast got their paychecks, the first thing that Ian McKellen bought was a car. Christopher Lee bought a hot meal.
