One of my favourite actors of all time and I'm sure top of most people's mind when you ask for a name of a great actor and man. Died at age of 93

Sad times.

What was your favourite move that he stared in?

The lord of the rings and The hobbit movies... This is just so sad. I had a bad day and then I came home from school and found out that he had passed away and everything just got worse. He was an amazing actor and he will live forever in all his movies nad in our Hearts. R.I.P.  Sir Christopher Lee

According to IMDB - - - Sir Christopher Frank Carandini Lee is credited with over 280 movie and television character roles in a career that stretched from 1946 to two (2) movies that have already completed filming but are still in post production.

As for a favorite roll, mine would have to be that of the shiny pistol-packing James Bond arch villain Francisco Scarmanga in the 1974 classic THE MAN WITH THE GOLDEN GUN

Interesting fact according to the bio /obituary posted at

The Times of Israel

Lee’s acting career followed his World War II service as an intelligence officer and, briefly, a Nazi-hunter. A fluent French- and German-speaker, he spent the final months of WWII with the UN’s Central Registry of War Criminals and Security Suspects, which assisted the UN’s War Crimes Commission and Allied governments in tracing Nazi war crimes suspects, a post which also involved him visiting concentration camps.

And, besides the honorary title bestowed upon him (knighted for services to drama and charity in 2009, Sir Christopher Lee received the BAFTA Fellowship in 2011 and received the BFI Fellowship in 2013) he was also born royalty by blood.

Christopher Frank Carandini Lee was born in London on May 27, 1922. His father was a British army officer who had served in the Boer War, his mother was Contessa Estelle Marie Carandini di Sarzano, an Edwardian beauty of Italian descent. His parents separated when he was young, and his mother later remarried Harcourt Rose, the uncle of James Bond creator Ian Fleming.
