There were many sides to the man, and one was his sense of humor.

“The most moving and surprising portion of the conversation was when Lee was recalling his friend Peter Cushing, who had just passed away in the summer of that year. Lee missed his friend terribly but also delighted in telling me the way the two would keep each other entertained in the down time during the shoots of the many films they worked in together. Apparently they were both keen Looney Tunes fans, and used to conduct entire conversations in the voices of their favorite characters. To demonstrate, Lee actually laid his Foghorn Leghorn impersonation on me.”

Imagine if he had accepted the role of Eddie in
Who Framed Roger Rabbit? He could have been surrounded by all his favorite characters.
