    Christopher Lee is the man we should all strive to be even though we'll all fall horribly short.

    ian fleming was a naval intelligence officer who compiled James Bond out of all the spies he was personally acquainted with

    I do not think christopher lee was one of them and can't find any documents or statements from Fleming to that effect but even if it's true he'd only be one of about a dozen men who provided the inspiration

    The man had 93 years of being inexcusably handsome under his belt. And now, he's finally cleared the way for others to come close and yet still fall short of his alarming good looks.

    Like seriously the fact that he was so handsome for so long lends credence to him being cast in several films as an ageless vampire with entrancing good looks. He was like an actually photogenic Kenneth Parcell, but with more Nazi stabbing.

    I feel like his refusal to speak openly about his service in WW2 is a strong indicator that he killed a fuckton of Nazis

    Wolfenstein is actually a toned down retelling of his service in the war

    He wouldn’t have told them anyway.

    When pressed by an eager interviewer on his SAS past, he leaned forward and whispered: “Can you keep a secret?”

    “Yes!” the interviewer replied, breathless with excitement.

    “So can I.” replied a smiling Lee, sitting back in his chair.

    I checked to see if he had been on Inside the Actor's Studio and he was not. Anyone know of a similar thing to that he may have done that I can watch?

    While filming a swordfight with a drunken Errol Flynn during the filming of The Dark Avengers in 1955, Flynn accidentally cut Lee’s hand so badly his finger nearly came off, and permanently injured. Later, Lee cut off Flynn’s wig while Flynn was still wearing it. Flynn stormed off set and refused to come out of his trailer until Lee claimed it was an accident.

    I'm sure there's some Nazi still alive and hiding out in south America who'd be more worth his time

    14) In the ‘50s, Lee was engaged to Henriette von Rosen, daughter of Count Fritz von Rosen. The Count apparently didn’t like Lee, because after hiring private detectives to investigate the actor and demanding references, he also refused to allow his daughter to marry him unless Lee got the blessing of the King of Sweden. Lee got it.

    good lord
