Favorite interpretation of Blofeld

Who do you think played the best Blofeld visually on screen? There have been 4 actors would played the role and whom we saw his face without hiding behind a wall:

Donald Pleasence (You Only Live Twice)

(please log in to view the image)

Telly Savalas (On Her Majesy's Secret Service)

(please log in to view the image)

Charles Gray (Diamonds Are Forever)

(please log in to view the image)

Max Von Sydow (Never Say Never Again)

(please log in to view the image)

A picture says a 1000 words for me:

But I'll add a few more to explain. I think Donald Pleasence played the best Blofeld ever. He was mysterious, more sadistic, more sinister and carried the character of Blofeld to its highest plateau, where other actors couldn't. He played the role as a formible, arch-villain should: with class and respect. And he looked the part. Everything I ever thought Blofeld should be.

Yessiree, changed it at the first chance i had. it seems that every where i posted they referred to me in many names.

woody woods was a hunter i heard about in a camping trip a few years back, so there is a guy out there with that name.

I think Telly Savalas makes a great Blofeld...unlike Donald Pleasence and Charles Gray he actually *gets into the action* as well as lording it over Piz Gloria in true sinster Blofeld fashion...

He looks almost reptilian in his seduction of The Countessa...'tis a good job her father and Bond saved her in time...I don't think it would have been *an estate* she would have enjoyed...

Max Von Sydow is a great actor but as I haven't seen NSNA for quite some time -due to my loathing of it- I cannot really give an opinion on his part as Blofeld...

So FWIW...it's Telly, Donald and Charles in that order with Max out for lunch...

I agree. Blofeld isn't supposed to be a charming, witty, english cross-dresser!
