As I found out this morning on AICN (Ain't It Cool News), I wouldn't be able to cuss out Christopher Lee, in French, seems like he might know a couple cuss words in Joual (the French Canadian dialect). Damn!

Peter then called over Pierre Vinet, the set photographer and super awesome French Canadian dude. "Why don't you snap a few pictures of these guys with Chris?" Pierre begins telling us where to stand and then starts speaking French at Christopher who shoots it back just as fluently. There's a discussion of variations on French cursing... the difference between French and French Canadian curse words... then the photos are snapped.

Chris Lee's French is amazing, he speaks it like a native, well, a French native, not a French Canadian, obviously. I have been blessed enough to watch "Dracula Pere et Fils" while recuperating from surgery in April and it was shot in French (though some scenes happen to be in London, and those were in English with French subtitles). I realized about halfway through the movie that it was really Chris' voice in the French version. I was amazed. I even think he dubbed his own voice for the LOTR French dub, so that was great.
