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.
All six episodes of the 1970s TV drama series starring John Mills, Brian Keith, Lilli Palmer and Barry Morse. Five resistance fighters, known only by their animal-based code names, fought together during World War II. Thirty years later they are reunited following the death of one of their number. Despite their age they put their skills and experience to use to raise enough money to construct a hospital in his memory by scamming criminals. Together they strike as a modern-day band of Robin Hoods, robbing from the criminal element to fund their noble cause. Episodes are: 'Revenge: Post Dated', 'Mindless Murder', 'African Misfire', 'The Lion Hunt', 'The Counterfeit Trap' and 'The Twisted Cross'.
