Screen legend Christopher Plummer has passed away

“Chris was an extraordinary man who deeply loved and respected his profession with great old fashion manners, self deprecating humor and the music of words. He was a National Treasure who deeply relished his Canadian roots, friend and manager Lou Pitt said in a statement to Deadline. Through his art and humanity, he touched all of our hearts and his legendary life will endure for all generations to come. He will forever be with us.” Through each of the ensuing decades, he went on to appear in high-grossing and critically acclaimed films, branching out in the 2000s and 2010s to lend his distinct, dignified rasp to memorably-voiced characters in numerous video games and animated films.

But it was opposite Julie Andrews as von Trapp in 1965 that made him a star. He played an Austrian captain who must flee the country with his folk-singing family to escape service in the Nazi navy, a role he lamented was “humorless and one-dimensional.” Plummer spent the rest of his life referring to the film as “The Sound of Mucus” or “S&M.” “We tried so hard to put humor into it,” he told The Associated Press in 2007. “It was almost impossible. It was just agony to try to make that guy not a cardboard figure.” A GIF of the captain ripping a Nazi flag became a popular meme in recent years, and gave Plummer a new does of fame.
