Sir Christopher Lee was one of the most outstanding and beloved actors of the past sixty years. Lee has appeared in everything from Hammer Horror Films to James Bond thrillers to Star Wars and Lord of the Rings. Lee's output is enormous covering more than 200 theatrical releases and more than 100 made for television films. If there is one theme that has surfaced in his diverse portrayals it is that of Good vs. Evil. Lee is a very menacing figure in Dracula and The Wicker Man, a tragic figure in The Curse of Frankenstein and The Mummy and a spiritual hero in The Devil Rides Out. This study explores not only Lee's importance as a film actor but his also his diverse interpretations of the theme of Good vs. Evil.]
