"It isn’t that I object to it. I just feel it’s the wrong adjective as applied to the films I do. Because horror to me is, say, a film like The Godfather. Or anything to do with war, which is real and can happen, and unfortunately, no doubt, will happen again some time. But the films that dear Christopher Lee and I do are really fantasy. And I think fantasy is a better adjective to use. I don’t object to the term horror, it’s just the wrong adjective!"

—The late, great Peter Cushing speaking truth.

Gloria Swanson, 1924.

These photos were taken by Edward Steichen for Vogue in 1924. Steichen described the idea he had for the shoot: “…I took a piece of black lace veil and hung it in front of her face, She recognized the idea at once. Her eyes dilated and, her look was that of a leopardess lurking behind leafy shrubbery, watching her prey.“
