#THROWBACKTHURSDAY: THE QUEEN, THE BARON AND THE COUNT HAMMER FILMS STYLE

#THROWBACKTHURSDAY : PETER CUSHING, Christopher Lee, Veronica Carlson and Barbara Ewing: May 29th 1968, Hammer was awarded the Queen's Award to Industry in recognition of their contribution to the British economy. Hammer had indeed proved themselves to be the most successful British film company ever. Their reported export earnings were in excess of £2.7 million 1968, so Hammer received the Queen's Award to Industry - the first time the award had gone to a film production company, and yet just a decade later, they were struggling to get a single film into production.''

REMEMBERING CHRISTOPHER LEE : HAPPY BIRTHDAY

HERE IS THE FIRST of two main posts today for TWO splendid gentlemen, who by a strange quirk of fate, SHARED their birthday's today, 27th May.

SADLY, neither are no longer with us... Christopher Lee and Vincent Price. Lee's passing was almost a year ago, June 7th last year. A sad loss even at his age...we just didn't want him to go. A close friend of Peter Cushing's, celebrated and remembered here, almost as much as Peter. He had a career that stretched across almost every genre in the industry. His accomplishments were many, his skill as an actor even as he grew frail, never left him... and neither did we. 

SO TODAY, RAISE A GLASS of whatever is handy, Sir Christopher Lee we STILL salute you and remember you as a gentleman, a scholar and a towering talent, never to be replaced on the screen and in the hearts of many... a very HAPPY  BIRTHDAY today!
