One of the finest actors of his generation would have to be Christopher Lee, born on May 27th, 1922. We’ve seen him in a whole lot of great movies over the years, and this December we’ll be seeing him in The Hobbit: An Unexpected Journey.
The actor, who holds the Guinness book world record for most film acting roles ever, has recorded a Christmas message to his fans, which includes a couple of thoughts about his appearances in The Lord of the Rings saga and in the upcoming The Hobbit movies. I find it a little sad to see how old he’s becoming now and how he smiles to himself when he thinks out loud about whether or not he’ll live to see The Hobbit.
