Dinner with Dracula
Suave, composed without being self-centered, polite without being meek or squishy, Christopher Lee looked like everbody's favorite grandfather, his mellifluous baritone voice dignified, authoritative and easy to laugh.
A hit with the press, Mr Lee was humbly and intelligently answering questions from hoi polloi like the Bangkok press, International Foreign Film press, and me.
How does this relate to Spooning Out Brains? "Follow your passion!" (sketching interesting faces from life is one of mine) and "Strike while the iron's hot!" (Mr Lee may never cross my life-path again, AND the BKK FilmFest is only once a year, and picking his multi-faceted ultra-talented brain was a true PLEASURE!

Cool paintings. I thought it was a shame that Christopher Lee didn't get a bigger part in LOTR. JRR Tolkien certainly made him a key character in his trilogy, even if it was as a representative of the kind of evil that comes of quisling appeasement. He will have better roles in the future after with Star Wars and LOTR appearances.
