Podcast appearances and mentions of christopher lees

Passionate and nuanced. Those are just two of the many adjectives the CLT Symphony Orchestra uses to describe resident conductor, Christopher Lees. We'll add fast, quick-witted, and full of energy to the list.  Chris was gracious enough to sprint from morning run club and all the way into the studio to join us on this show. Which, we're certain was a grand departure from what we can only assume are much more high-brow interviews!  All kidding aside, Chris had us cracking up. From the cheese jokes, to the REAL reason he only ran one season of cross country … to accidentally learning he's a pretty dang fast runner!  Lindsey McGee co-hosts with DC Lucchesi as we welcome Chris Lees to the Running Around Charlotte Podcast, presented by Novant Health Orthopedics and Sports Medicine.

Es gibt nur einen wahren König der Vampire. Graf Dracula. Der berühmteste Blutsauger der Horrorgeschichte, von Bram Stoker 1897 erschaffen und seitdem in zahllosen Büchern und Filmen weitergesponnen. Und es gibt nur eine wahre Königin der Horrorfilmgeschichte: Hammer Productions Ltd. Gegründet im Jahr 1934 und spätestens seit den späten 50er Jahren Aushängeschild für mal mehr (mal weniger) gehobenen Gothic Horror mit schmalem Budget. Ein wesentlicher Grund für die enorme Reputation von Hammer in Horrorfilmkreisen dürfte Dracula aus dem Jahr 1958 sein: Der erste Dracula-Film in Farbe, das Debüt Christopher Lees als Obervampir und das Debüt Peter Cushings als sportlicher Van Helsing. Die Hammer'sche Dracula-Version ist so etwas wie ein Kondensat des Urstoffes: Reduziert auf das Wesentliche, den Kampf des Menschen gegen die unsterbliche Bestie, ohne großen erzählerischen Schnickschnack, dafür aber mit einer Menge Action und einer ungeheuren Liebe zum Detail, die sich vor allem im wunderschönen Setting und den prunkvollen Kostümen widerspiegelt. Aber natürlich ist der Film auch ein Kind seiner Zeit, seiner Herkunft und seines Budgets: Zwischen Naivität und düsterem Horror pendelnd, mal pathetisch, mal frivol, mal brutal, mal unfreiwillig komisch. Eine Modernisierung des Draculas für das Jahr 1958 in einem sehr speziellen Stil, der wegweisend sein sollte auch für spätere Hammer-Filme… und der mit Sicherheit nicht jedem liegt. Wie sah es denn bei dir aus, Johannes?
