Not familiar with a lot of his work, but am definitely aware of his reputation. I loved him as Johnny Depp's dad in Charlie and the Chocolate Factory. Another legend gone, RIP.
93's a good age and he lived an extremely full life.
Rest in peace, Lord Summerisle.

One of my favourite Lee appearances is still his brief role as a sinister civil servant in Gary Sherman's Deahtline aka Raw Meat. His scene with Donald Pleasence is one of the best in the film and makes you wish he had a bigger part.
He was great in LOTR trilogy, Raw Meat, Dracula with other Hammer stuff, Wicker Man, The Last Unicorn (anyone remembers that animated Rankin Bass Japanese-US made fantasy flick? he plays the evil king), Gremlins 2 and more.
Dang this is sad news. I'm a huge LOTR/Hobbit fan so obviously I knew him as Saruman and he was amazing playing him. I also saw him in The Wicker Man and he was great in that too. But yeah 93 is a nice, long life that the majority of people don't even reach.
