He-he. As a kid I enjoyed his role as "The Swamp Fox" on Disney.Nielsen initially wasn’t going to do “Airplane” because he felt it would damage his credibility as a dramatic actor. He was right, but it gave him a whole second career as a comic actor. And he was far better comedically than as a serious actor.
Never got to see Dark Shadows. By the time I walked home from school, it was mostly over except for the theme music.Dark Shadows was the go to after school scare me show...... It, and Gilligan's Island....thought that didn't really scare me, much.........I feared for Mary Ann on that dangerous island..
Was he Frances Marion?He-he. As a kid I enjoyed his role as "The Swamp Fox" on Disney.

If I remember correctly, Peter Cushing was 6' 1 1/2" and Christopher Lee was 6' 4" tall.I think I remember reading Peter Cushing was a very tall man. It came to mind as I was while watching The Mummy awhile back. Nope, wrong one. It was Christopher Lee.
I've always enjoyed the Hammer horror films, especially those with Lee and Cushing. They have a special kind of creepiness.My favorite will always be Peter Cushing as Van Helsing in those old Hammer films. Actually, I read an old autobiography of Peter Cushing and he wrote that he and Cristopher Lee became friends while filming. Apparently Lee also helped him get work from time to time. Such a gentle man. I'm a bit biased...he reminds me so much of my maternal grandfather. I do miss those old movies. My mom and I would stay up on Saturday nights and watch Creature Features together. Good times! Svengoolie is my go to now for a "monster movie" fix. Hey, a girls gotta do what a girls gotta do! Now, lets bring on the popcorn
