RIP Christopher Lee

"This attitude that 'people wouldn't understand' is far too prevalent in cinema today. People should be able to use what's left of their minds when they watch something."
- Christopher Lee, Wicker Man DVD commentary

"Come freely. Go safely; and leave something of the happiness you bring."
- Bram Stoker, Dracula

93 years. 281 movies. More iconic roles than I've had hot suppers.

Good show, Sir Christopher. Thank you.

ETA: And shit, Ornette Coleman just passed as well. Fuck this day.

No argument from me there.
