There would certainly be no Scarlet in Gaslight without the inspiration of Jimmy Sangster.<br /><br />Rest in peace, sir.Martin Powellhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08178236776724050838noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5112951555998191786.post-37142277091291559022011-08-20T13:26:29.420-04:002011-08-20T13:26:29.420-04:00Yes, a lovely post.

Even before reading your post, Pierre, I was wishing I'd taken the time to write a fan letter to Jimmy Sangster. And for that matter, years ago, to Peter Cushing (actually I did, but never mailed it), to Terence Fisher, to Lon Chaney Jr., to Boris Karloff...and etc. Thanks for the heartfelt post. Jimmy Sangster was a name I'd known almost all my life, and I'm missing him right now.<br /> I think I will now write to Christopher Lee.Rickhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16852486439841044107noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5112951555998191786.post-83613506993486976882011-08-20T11:16:46.572-04:002011-08-20T11:16:46.572-04:00Great post, Pierre.
