eldritchhobbitOn this day 100 years ago, Peter Cushing was born. He would go on to become an actor and a gentleman, portraying roles from Jane Austen's Mr. Darcy to Edgar Rice Burroughs's Dr. Abney Perry, a repeated Victor Frankenstein and Van Helsing, and a staple of Hammer Horror films. He became a very human Doctor Who, and he offered, over a number of years, one of cinema's finest interpretations of Sherlock Holmes (one of my "top three" favorite incarnations of the Great Detective). Last but certainly not least, Cushing became Grand Moff Tarkin himself, wielder of the Death Star, destroyer of Alderaan, and holder of Darth Vader's leash.

Date: 2013-05-26 01:22 pm (UTC)Two things I remember in particular. First, one of Van Helsing’s companions is a Norwegian noblewoman whose job is to be the Damsel and do damselly things, like be in distress and have a heaving bosum (which she has in spades). Listening to her, I thought about what a cheesy accent she had. Later, I looked up the movie on IMDB and found out that the actress in question is Norwegian. D'oh!
The other occurs in a scene when the titular vampires are raiding a village of panicking peasants. One of the vampires rides past a screaming female peasant and rips off her blouse. She continues screaming for several seconds before noticing that her rack is on display and she covers up, the whole time never letting up on her screaming.
I suppose I should apologize for the lame pun in the previous paragraph.
