He played Captain von Trapp in "The Sound of Music". Among other memorable roles.

 

For example Emperor of the Galaxy in "Female Space Invaders"

This is ridiculous - of course he's famous enough (even if he is Canadian)

 

Wellington in Waterloo

Atuhalpa in Royal Hunt of the Sun

Charles Litton in the Return of the Pink Panther (although rather upstaged by Sellars)

Commodus in Fall of the Roman Empire

 

plus Battle of Britian, Aces High etc, etc

 

see below

 

Christopher Plummer IMDB

 

Thing is tho, that he still seems to be going strong and working on 2-3 projects even now - better pick for 2007? Still worth keeping an eye out for health reports this year, I guess

Aye, and - more to the point - employable in a world of nonces and creeps.

 

How long before movie posters promise us nonce free action!

Happy birthday Christopher! :birthday:

 

I find it amusing that both he and Dick Van Dyke share the same bday and both of their most popular films were alongside Julie Andrews.

Heh, but then he was in the "Knives Out" movie. Looked fine there, except for his death.

Oh no, Canadas greatest actor dead :( That sucks, he was a fantastic actor, and stayed very active doing theatre until the end.

RIP, true legend!
