Such a great personality. Now after this interview, I feel more proud of myself cause I'm his fan. Long live Christopher Lee! Thank you for the post. :)
@CloneWarrior001 aaah Peter Ustinov.. Another giant. I will never forget his portrayal of the emperor Nero in Quo Vadis. Such things, such talents, are truly immortal.
@9Nienor I agree with you. I would also bow to him if I were to ever be so lucky to stand in front of him. A living legend. Such an imposing, charismatic, tall and elegant gentleman from another era. With such a deep and wonderful voice. A true lord. Every film he's worked in has gained depth and significance because of his perfect acting and mere presence. Those who had the priviledge to work with him or talk to him are lucky people indeed.
@123highspeed I don't blame u for this. Krone is german and means crown. But this girl did'nt earn a crown with extra stupidity ;-) When she was born, this man had already a life, enough for two. Imagine u are him and have to listen to this....I swear: I would'nt be so gentle like him. That makes him better than me :-)
i hope he can do plenty more films yet, i heard he went to collect an award and he was limping on a cane but that may have been a rumour, keep at it sir christopher
No idea he could speak German what a great man such a shame a true English gentleman we dont get many of these great old actors anymore hes been in countless films amazing guy.
not to be rude to the germans... but this man's voice is a big part of his acting, he has a wonderful voice, which if i'm not mistaking, you germans re-dubb? replace with a nobody?.. that is just so stupid to me.
@d0dgerdante Well, you have to take into account that not every German is very fluent in English. All our movies are dubbed into the German language and most appreciate the convenience of not having to read subtitles but being able to fully focus on the movie instead. You are right, however, that his voice is so unique and powerful that it is a shame it gets lost. It should be said, though, that most of the time the German voice actors do a really decent job.
@fortehlulz9999 Yeah, sure, ha ha, all Germans are nazis, right? He speaks German cause it's a beautiful language, have a little respect, National Socialism is by far not the most noticable or important thing about Germany or the countrys history.
@TheDragonoftheWest I said he killed a lot of Nazis in WWII, you smegma chugging imbecile. Dig your sorry head out of your father's ass for five minutes and get a clue.
@fortehlulz9999 You said "He killed enough of those Nazis in WWII with the RAF" - doesn't sound very friendly from my view. If it wasn't intended to be aggressive, I apologize, but then you should express your thoughts a little more precise, and by the way, no reason to get offending that way, I have not harmed you in any way.
I love him for who he is..not for hes an actor like people do to day..Am a Lee Fan Girl for I love his mind, his smarts his tenderness..and really if you think about he isnt half bad..he as dorain sydom lol
@PFXProductions he says in German: Nein, ich kann nicht so gut deutsch sprechen. (No, I don't speak German very well.) Ich habe nie studiert, ich habe nie gelernt. (I never studied, I never learned it.) Ich habe auf deutsch gesungen und gedreht. (I sang and shot in German.)
Then the interviewer asks him to sing and he says:
"Nein, das habe ich zwei mal gemacht, nein nein, nicht mehr. (No, I did that two times, no no, not anymore.)
can you be more awesome than being Dracula, Saruman, Count Dooku, The Man with the Golden Gun, Frankeinstein's Monster and being knighted in the real world?
Da haben sie mal endlich einen richtig großen Star vor dem Mikro ( auch von der Statur her ) und fragen nur dumme Scheiße.Das zeichnet die Journalisten von heute aus.Kein Skandal ,also auch kein Interview. Schade . Leider auch kein Benehmen . Nicht Herr Lee ,sondern Sir Christopher.Den Professor von der Uniklinik,der ihre Dummheit behandelt,nennen sie auch nicht Herr Neumaier.
Christopher Lee is one of the finest actors of this generation, as well as immensely intelligent, for crying out loud, he can speak German. I also heard he's a war veteran.
he speaks english, german, french, italian, spanish, russian .... and 2 others. i think he is the most gifted actor EVER!!! but underestimated as well!!!!
Watch "Valhalla" or "The Last Unicorn" in the german dubbed version . He does his own voiceover in german and it's accent-free! I mean, his german is perfect! Until recently I didn't even know it was him in these movies. Of course if you know, you recognize a SLIGHT bit of an accent but that's really only if you listen very closely.
hes german? no wonder he always plays an evil character.. count dooku/ darth tyrannus, sauroman, a judge in sleepy hollow who sentences a man to death
Tony Benn said that the role of the elderly is to encourage the young. Christopher Lee is very inspiring and encouraging. I wish there were more respectable men like him in the public eye.
Of course he speaks german, he is the wise Saruman!
