MOTHERING SUNDAY AND THE CUSHING'S ON HOLIDAY AND MUM CAME TOO!


#‎MOTHERINGSUNDAY!‬ HAPPY MOTHERING SUNDAY to all our Mum's and Mom's in the USA! Below is Peter Cushing talking about his Mum!



ABOVE HERE IS A VERY RARE PIC of the Cushing Family, with Mum Nellie on holiday, in BOGNOR, of all places! From the left: GEORGE Cushing, Peter Father, then NELLIE Peter's Mother. Next ARTHUR Peter's Uncle, and Nellie's sister in law, WYN . An unnamed chap on the far right. At the front Peter's brother, DAVID on the left and a young smiling PETER on the right! The reverse side of this pic comes from a time when, a jobbing photographer would take your photograph at a sea-side resort, and process it on photographic paper that was also a postcard....so when you picked up your pic, you could write on the reverse side and post it off to your relatives and friends!  

 
DANCES, BANQUETS AND BALLS!: Martita Hunt as The Baron's Mother, Baroness Meinster. There is a story that when Martitia was rehearsing the scene where the Baroness laments the loss of the time when the château was once the social hub of parties, banquets and balls, she inadvertently paused and placed prominence on the word....'balls'. Everyone in attendance, broke out laughing, Fisher included...she repeated this in the take that was shot and printed in the final cut of 'Brides'....

MOTHERS DAY : SO WHO INTRODUCED YOU TO THE FILMS OF PETER CUSHING?


Come and join in with YOUR story over at our  Peter Cushing Appreciation Society Facebook Fan Page FEATURE right NOW! https://www.facebook.com/petercushingblog

So, WHO introduced you to Peter Cushing and his work..his films, his name? And why are we asking that question on Mother's Day in the US? Well, there's a simple answer. Through out our time here on facebook, many of you tell us about the first Cushing film you saw, usually as a kid 10 13 maybe, some caught them on the US Horror Movie Hosts shows, some of you here in the UK caught your first Cushing moivie during the double bill seasons that ran on BBC tv during the 70's and 80's....but there is one factor that comes up in most, not all, but many....You watched your first Hammer horror or Horror film featuring Peter Cushing with your MUM / MOM/ MOTHER even grandmother...and sometimes with your Dad too, curled up wide eyed...but loving it! So, tells us was your Mother the monster kid in your home? Maybe it was your Mum AND your Dad? We'd love you to share your stories...C'mon someone held your hand...
