Christopher Lee Receives Bram Stoker Award
9 November 2011 · The Irish Times
Estate summary
Pamela Duncan reports Christopher Lee’s acceptance of the Bram Stoker Gold Medal from Trinity College Dublin’s Philosophical Society. The article places the honour alongside his long screen career and his repeated performances as Dracula, while recording his preference for other roles, including The Wicker Man and Jinnah. Lee discusses the actor’s task of making unbelievable events convincing, and the report notes the presentation of a collection of M. R. James ghost stories by Trinity’s Darryl Jones. Published on 9 November 2011, this is contemporary reporting of an event connecting a major screen interpreter of Dracula with Bram’s former university. The related picture shows Lee in his original Hammer role; it should not be mistaken for a photograph of the award ceremony.
