RARE DRACULA LOBBY CARD AND TARKIN TRIBUTE CLIP


#THROWBACKTHURSDAY! Probably the strangest thing I have ever found included in the images of a US Lobby Set.... but VERY good indeed. A Throw Back to 1958 and the Horror of Dracula / Dracula from Hammer films. I disguarded piece of production or promotional artwork, ends up on a lobby card! 🙂 What do you think of it?



#THROWBACKTHURSDAY! . . . . Industrial Light and Magic building Peter Cushing's Grand Moff Tarkin, from the feet up, with actor Guy Henry in 'Rogue One : A Star Wars Story' (2016) Rogue One: A Star Wars Story.

DISNEY AND LUCASFILM were able to bring the look of the original 1977 movie back to the big screen with modern film making technology. Perhaps the most impressive achievement amidst all that attention to detail was the film’s uncanny ability to convincingly bring Peter Cushing’s character, the Grand Moff Tarkin, back to life on the screen. Here Guy Henry is outfitted with a motion-capture suit and head-mounted gear to preserve the actor’s moves and facial expressions, which were ultimately overlaid with Cushing’s likeness. The rig affixed to Henry almost looks like a device straight out of a sci-fi movie on its own.
