| Peter Cushing reunited with Dave Prowse in Star Wars |
The
presence of Alec Guinness ensured the critics would pay some attention
to Star Wars – but
the name that would have attracted the interest of genre fans was
that of Peter Cushing.
Cushing
would have been 101 today. (Thanks to the fundraisers of
@UKGarrison for reminding me of that on Twitter this morning and
inspiring this blog post.) So it's a fitting time to consider his
contribution to the most successful film of his long career.
