NOTES TO FRANKENSTEIN: PETER CUSHING 'MONSTER FROM HELL' SCREENPLAY SCREENPLAY


Cover of Peter Cushing's revised screenplay / script: 'Frankenstein and the Monster from Hell' (Hammer Films. Terence Fisher. 1971) Peter's notes: 'Always throw coat tails up when sit... Careful not to do mannerisms with mouth... Keep shoulders back... Always puff shirt cuffs below coat sleeves, except with OP coat, keep them tucked in for this...Don't ever look on ground.. Don't sniff... Cliff: Please make my ears less red... Always be busy, doing something... Cliff: No make up under chin because of collar getting marked... Along with train times, there are also the telephone numbers of Peter's agent John Redway, Brown's Hotel where Peter stayed whilst working near London, Elstree studios and Paddy Smith who was Peter's regular stand-in. Paddy also worked as Peter's driver, often meeting him at Victoria train station London, when he came in from Whitstable by train and drove him to Elstree, Shepperton or Pinewood studios.
