Christopher Lee is, to put it bluntly, my single favourite actor of all time
He has been in some of the greatest, most epic, most intriguing, most funny, most classic, most terrifying, and most genre-defining films of all time. He gleefully accepted roles in self confessed schlock for the fun of it, lent his voice to heavy metal bands while in his 90s, and spent his entire life as an actor, and the single most prolific actor in human history at that.
More than that he was a commando whose actions in WW2 are still classified, a writer, and a truly beautiful human being. He lived one of the fullest, richest lives one can imagine, and I am so fucking glad for all he gave us during it, even If I am sad his passing now marks the passing of one of the last great scions of classic 20th century cinema
Rest in peace you magnificent bastard. You have more than earned it
