THE BURST WATER-PIPE SCENE : GETTHECUSHIONSUNDAY!

#GETTHECUSHIONSUNDAY! THE BURST WATER PIPE SCENE: 'Frankenstein Must Be Destroyed' (1969)  In this week's scene, we have Veronica Carlson, who plays ANNA the keeper of a boarding house where Frankenstein decides to hide out and perform his experiments. Veronica Carlson has never been better.

It is without doubt, one of the best scenes, in a film, packed with tension and moments. - It's a simple premise, but very effective. It features Anna having to haul a body out of a makeshift grave in a flower garden after a water main has burst.... But talk about bad timing! This happens, as the local police are running a check on the house, after tip offs, that THE BARON, maybe staying there.  Under Fisher's masterful direction, the scene is as tense as anything in a Hitchcock film, and Anna ends up completely drenched, but successful in transferring the corpse to another hiding place so the police can't find it. It's an extraordinary scene and Carlson is exceptional in it.

'THE BURST PIPE SCENE' : There were many scenes in films from Cushing's career that were complex  to set up or were quite a spectacle. The drama of the preparation of the execution, has been in many cases lost. However, not in this case! We are fortunate that the studio stills photographer, was on hand and caught it all!

BRAD AND CHARLIE HARMER-BARNES : UBER CUSHING FANS

Brad and Charlie wrote to us this week to tell us about a very special event that happened last weekend... ' We went to Whitstable for the first time when it was Peter's centenary in 2013 and fell in love with the place.....

 Charlie and Brad hanging out at the market, by the harbour in Whitstable..

'We love The Peter Cushing Wetherspoon's pub and restaurant ,The Old Neptune pub, we love wandering around the small shops on the high street...'

'We knew if we were ever going to get married it would be there...and it WAS...and we DID... LAST WEEKEND... in Whitstable! In fact, we had a Peter Cushing kinda themed reception too!

'All of our tables at the wedding reception were named after characters that Peter played throughout the span of his career!...

A Special Gift, that no Uber Cushing Fan should ever be without.... 'One of my closest friends made us this amazing pillow!' Yes, now there is a Peter Cushing Cushion....

'This was the name of the Top Table at the reception....'

 

'We had an amazing day, the sun was shining, everyone was helping themselves to 99 ice creams from the van that we hired. We laughed and we danced the night away. The table names proved to be popular, prompting lots of questions. The thing I love most about Peter was his devotion to his wife. I hope we can have a marriage like theirs' 

Our VERY special thanks to both Charlie and Brad...Mr and Mrs Harmer-Barnes, for sharing these lovely photographs and the story of their special day with us all. To love and be loved Is the pinnacle of happiness and riches. May you never lose sight of this precious treasure in all your days together. smile emoticon Our very best wishes to you both and your future together...and yes, you ARE indeed Uber Cushing Fans!
