DARN! I don’t get that channel. What a class actor and person he was. Not a scandal like today actors.

Ought to have the 1981 Chuck Norris classic “An Eye for an Eye”. Lee was superb as the San Francisco TV station owner who turned out to be behind the drug ring that Norris’ SF cop was trying to break. I know that Chuck is not exactly TCM fare, lol, but still.

What about “Serial”, with Martin Mull, where Lee played a homosexual biker?

Once in a while TCM actually shows wild so-crappy-they-are-good type movies, but they usually only play them in the middle of the night. They played a craptastic Chuck Norris thing not too long ago.

“The Scarlet and the Black” would also be a good example, albeit a made-for-TV movie. Lee played the Nazi opposed to Gregory Peck’s Msgr. O’Flaherty. Both of them played their roles just camp-ily enough to be enjoyable, but seriously enough to be believable.

They couldn’t have started just a little earlier, and preempted Trog?

THE WICKER MAN, the original, not the remake.

Britt Ekland is the eye candy.

A real classic, and possibly Lee's greatest role.

I understand. Just this morning I couldn’t think of the name of an actor. Whoever he was. Now I can’t remember who it was I was trying to remember. It happens.
