From his film debut in ""The Man in the Iron Mask"" (1939) through
""Biggles"" (1985), the career and the movies of Peter Cushing,
known as 'the gentle man of horror', are examined. Using interviews
and extensive personal correspondence, the authors provide
Cushing's own views on many of his 91 films. A plot synopsis for
each film is followed by production and cast credits, year produced
and alternate titles. Also included are contemporary reviews of
Cushing's work.
His resume of roles includes Macbeth, Cyrano de Bergerac, Ebenezer
Scrooge and Oedipus Rex. His career has encompassed theatre and
television in England, Canada and the United States. With a gift
for developing offbeat characters, Barry Morse has had a prolific
acting career, and the story of his life is a veritable history of
20th century theatre from the days before World War II through the
early 21st century. In this memoir, Morse traces his life and
career, including his years at the Royal Academy of Dramatic Art,
his radio jobs with the BBC, his 60-year marriage to actress Sydney
Sturgess and their years together in the Court Players, his roles
on television shows (""The Fugitive"", ""Space: 1999""), and his
acquaintance with literary lights (George Bernard Shaw) and screen
stars (Robert Mitchum and Peter Cushing). Photographs from the
Morse family collection are included.
