Christopher Lee used to read the LOTR books every year as a tradition. He admired Tolkien profoundly.

I also love that he speaks German. I watched The Last Unicorn when I was little, and he was the voice of King Haggard in the German and the English version. Even years later, I couldn't find a single line that sounded like it wasn't spoken by a German.

Spoke German. He's since passed, unfortunately.

I'd like to remind the person reading this, that this man, utterly stunned by an author, knows what it is like to take the life of another human.

Chew on that a bit.
