They were true gentleman and consummate professionals, whose friendship spanned decades. From Lee’s autobiography: “I went into the dressing room...Then I went into a tirade about the food...a massive whinge. He looked at me and peeled his apple. ‘Well, there’s no good belly-aching about it, you know.’ That was about as severe as he could be. Coming from him, it was shattering. He really was the gentlest and most generous of men. It could be said of him that he died because he was too good for this world.”

They will always be two of my most beloved and favorite actors ever. RIP Peter and Sir Christopher.

@@yankeeforcestudios5431 So much wasted potential in the Dooku character. His story seemed to actually have more of a tragic hero arc than Anakin's.

I have a belief (bolstered by experience and observation): the people most capable of portraying villains tend to be empathetic, decent, genuine sweethearts. I believe the reason for this is that they are capable of empathizing with every type of personality. These actors feel deeply and truly for the characters they portray, but are amazing humans outside the production. Christopher Lee and Peter Cushing are no exceptions. Gentle, sweet men. God give them bliss and euphoria.

Governor Tarkin, the stone cold chief administrator of the Death Star, and Count Dooku, the classy Ex-Jedi now Sith Lord, are two of the most evil and cunning villains in Star Wars. But I personally love that the actor's behind the characters themselves are the most warm hearted and kind people you could possibly meet. Knowing that Christopher Lee and Peter Cushing were friends and spoke to one another is super sweet. By Lee's description of how Peter wrote to him and what he said is amazingly wholesome. And the way Peter addressed everyone as dear this or dear that is wonderful. Both the characters and actors who betray them remain some of my favorite to this day. It's a shame we've lost them, though. While they might be gone, they definitely will not be forgotten

One of the greatest friendships in the History of Cinema. Together they helped make Hammer one of the greatest Studios of it's time. RIP Sir Christopher Lee and Peter Cushing (O.B.E). 🙏❤📽

Count Dooku was a fascinating character and Christopher Lee played him amazingly

Sir Christopher (and in my world) SIR Peter Cushing were almost the last of Englands GREAT legendary actors. None will EVER equal them nor better them - I hope now in paradise together they share an afternoon tea and cucumber sandwiches on some VAST lawn all dressed in white with blue skies and angels. Thank you dearly to them both for their contribution to my life and everyone elses!

it's crazy how 1 performance by Peter Cushing seriously developed one of the most intense star wars characters in the story, considering how good of a person he was in life. Awesome stuff. Also Christopher Lee is amazing and his death metal album is sick.

For some reason, when he mentioned that part about how Peter Cushing would sign his letters really got to me. The genuineness to wording combined with the strong friendship conveyed by how Christopher Lee talks about it can't be understated

We don't need a count dooku movie, but I definitely would like to see Dooku in his younger years especially considering how strong they said he was before turning to the dark side. Darth Tyranus

To me one of the greatest tragedies in star wars will always be that both count dooku and grand moff tarkin never got to do any scenes together, two of the most iconic villains of the franchise

You can NOT Love Sir Christopher Lee. You just Can't. I feel very privileged a d lucky to have lived most of my life sharing the same planet with this guy. I'm Only 30 but the impact that this man has in my life is just humongous. You will live forever Mr Lee.
