ON PLAYING #SHERLOCKHOLMES : #CUSHING ON THE DETAIL AND #JEREMYBRETT


#PETERCUSHING had his own set of rules and needs, as far as playing #SherlockHolmes was concerned. According to producer of the Cushing and #JohnMills Sherlock film....Tyburn films 'The Masks of Death (1984) .... both Cushing and Jeremy Brett respected each others interpretation very highly. 'The greatest love affair I ever saw - I don't mean in a homosexual way- was Peter for Jeremy Brett and #JeremyBrett for Peter Cushing.' Cushing believed having Holmesian features, resembling Paget drawings, was very important and that it helped audiences believe! This post is also shared at the Peter Cushing Appreciation Society Facebook Fan Page UK today! I would love to read your opinions on this post and Peter's thoughts.. it might be news to some? - Marcus
