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'....

HAPPY BIRTHDAY ERIC MORECAMBE : PETER CUSHING AND HIS MONEY LONGEST RUNNING GAG!


TODAY MAY 14TH 2018 marks the birthday of Eric Morecambe, one half of the most successful comedy team in the UK. Still missed, loved by all, with Eric's passing back in 1984, it left a hole not only in the entertainment world but also in people's hearts. With his partner, Ernie...they provided one of tv's longest running gags, 'Peter Cushing and his Money!'... he did eventually get it , but not until the boys, had a lot of fun with it, stretching over many years and several programmes. God bless, Eric, Happy Birthday and thanks for all those precious memories and laughs.

CUSHING AND PLEASENCE ON MOTHER'S DAY!

/  

#GETTHECUSHIONITSCUSHING! As the strap lines says, Purrfect extracts for our Sunday theme, not only Peter Cushing bringing you a sting in his TAIL, but also Donald Pleasence's in one of Milton Subotsky's last outings, 'The Uncanny'. Subotsky often repeated some of his more popular threads and ideas from past Amicus films, and the camp OTT Horror film actor, was a motif he give us in 'The House That Dripped Blood'. with Jon Pertwee playing the meaty role of the waspish dandy, Paul Henderson. Here Pleasence plays it to the hilt, not so much the meaty dandy, but as 'Ham on a Shuskabab'! You'll see what we mean.



I HAVE ALWAYS enjoyed this film, and can't quite understand the mauling it received on it's release in 1977.. I think it's the cat's whiskers! 😉 What do you think? Is this a winner with you?


#GETTHECUSHIONITSCUSHION! TODAY here in the UK we are celebrating #MONTHERSDAY .... and we couldn't let that slip by without posting a pic of PC's Mother, Nellie Maria Cushing (1892-1961) To ALL Mothers, Mums, Ma's and Mummy's.... Happy Mothers Day!

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...
