Lee was knighted for services to drama and charity in 2009, received the BAFTA Fellowship in 2011 and received the BFI Fellowship in 2013. Lee considered his best performance to be that of Pakistan's founder Muhammad Ali Jinnah in the biopic Jinnah (1998), and his best film to be the British horror film The Wicker Man (1973). He frequently appeared opposite Peter Cushing in Hammer Horror films, and late in his career had roles in six Tim Burton films.
Christopher Lee Meng Soon (born 23 July 1971) is a Malaysian Singapore-based actor, host and singer.
Early life
Lee studied up to form 5 in Sekolah Menangah Seri Kota, Air Leleh, Malacca, Malaysia. He was an active student in school, serving as a prefect and representing his school in rugby competitions. He has an older sister and two younger brothers, the youngest being Frederick Lee Meng Chong, who is also an actor and model in Malaysia.
Career
Lee joined TCS (later MediaCorp) on a contract in 1995 after emerging as 1st runner-up in the male category of the Star Search programme in 1995. He worked as a model before becoming an actor. Lee first started acting in Chinese-language television dramas produced by Channel 8.
Chef Lee's career took off when he accepted the sous chef position at seafood restaurant Oceana in New York, under chef Cornelius Gallagher. The restaurant received glowing reviews from The New York Times and The New York Post. Afterward, Chef Lee was recruited by Gotham Bar and Grill's Alfred Portale for the chef de cuisine position at Stephen Starr's remake of the Striped Bass, in Philadelphia. Lee quickly rose to the executive chef position.
In August 2006, Chef Lee moved back to New York to accept the Executive Chef position at Gilt, which earned him international acclaim. The restaurant received four stars from Crain's New York Business, and under Chef Lee's guidance, Gilt also earned its first-ever Michelin 2-star rating.
The Raven is the fourth studio album by English new wave band The Stranglers. It was released on 21 September 1979, through record label United Artists.
Background
The first two songs, much of the artwork (the band is shown standing on the prow of a vikinglongship) and the album title refer to Norse mythology. The album deals with a variety of issues including Japanese ritual suicide ("Ice"), heroin use ("(Don't Bring) Harry"), the Iranian Revolution ("Shah Shah a Go Go") and Genetic engineering ("Genetix").
The Raven was released on 21 September 1979. It reached No. 4 in the UK albums chart, remaining in the chart for eight weeks. However, it is believed[by whom?] it should have made No.1 but for an error in the chart. The Police hit No.1 despite their album not yet being released, leading to controversy that the Police album was mis-credited with sales of The Raven.
The Raven is a 1935 American horror film directed by Lew Landers (billed under his real name, Louis Friedlander) and starring Boris Karloff and Béla Lugosi. The picture revolves around Edgar Allan Poe's famous homonymous poem, featuring Lugosi as a Poe-obsessed mad surgeon with a torture chamber in his basement and Karloff as a fugitive murderer desperately on the run from the police. Lugosi had the lead role, but Karloff received top billing, using only his last name.
Almost three decades later, Karloff also appeared in another film with the same title, Roger Corman's 1963 comedy The Raven with Vincent Price, Peter Lorre and Jack Nicholson. Aside from the title and references to the poem, the two films bear no resemblance to one another.
Plot summary
After Jean Thatcher (Ware) has been injured in a car accident, her father, Judge Thatcher (Hinds) and beau Jerry (Matthews) implore retired surgeon Dr. Richard Vollin (Lugosi) to perform a delicate operation to restore her to health. Vollin agrees and is successful; he befriends the spirited and grateful Jean, in the process revealing his passion for all things related to Edgar Allan Poe, including his homemade collection of torture devices inspired by Poe's works (such as a pit, pendulum with scythe, shrinking room, etc.), and identifying the raven as his talisman.
Christopher Lee (September 4, 1964 – December 22, 2012) was an Asian-American transgender activist and filmmaker in the San Francisco Bay Area community. He was also the co-founder of Tranny Fest, now called the San Francisco Transgender Film Festival (SFTFF). Lee’s death and the designation of his assigned gender at birth on his death certificate rather than his self-identified gender was the impetus behind the “Respect After Death Act” or AB 1577 Bill which was passed in California on September 26, 2014.
Personal life
Christopher Lee was born in San Diego, California. His biological family includes his father Curtis Lee, mother Helen Lee Rios, uncle Charles Thorne, sisters Sabrina Lim, Roberta Lee, Melinda Tolmie, and Lori VanSteenberge. Christopher also identifies with two other families who are the Scott-Chung family of Oakland, CA, and the Hadley Carranza family. The Scott-Chung family includes MeiBeck (Chino) and Maya Scott-Chung, their daughter Luna and MeiBeck’s (Chino’s) mother Teresa Chung. The Hadley Carranza family includes Jae Carranza/J Zapata, Cosmo Joseph Hadley Carranza and Lisa Marie Hadley. Lee was also in a relationship with his boyfriend, Spencer F.
Very good advice by Christopher Lee - not only for actors
I took this part out of a whole interview because I wanted to preserve the essence of that interview. I thought this part was the most important message and could make a real difference in the life of a person.
Often we just need to hear the right words in the right moment to have a lifelong positive impact on our life.
Thank you for all the love in the comments for this great man!
Great actor, smart man, good man. He was a rare individual.
