  • The Beard Is a Bloody Bother"

    The Beard Is a Bloody Bother"

    The beard is a bloody bother" Except for the makeup, Edward Mulhare enjoys impersonating a ghost. By Burt Prelutsky TV Guide, May 17, 1969 If Rex Harrison ever gets the funny feeling he's being followed, it isn't paranoia it's Edward Mulhare. In 1957, just 11 months after "My Fair Lady" opened on Broadway. Harrison bowed out. Mulhare took over in the role of Prof. Henry Higgins and spent three years trying to straighten out Eliza Doolittle's diction. Then this past season, some 21 years after the movie "The Ghost and Mrs. Muir" was released, the story popped up again as the vehicle for a TV series. Again Mulhare was in for Harrison. They aren't, in fact, all that much alike. Harrison bites off his lines as though he could taste them, and spits them out like bitter seeds. Mulhare is not nearly so brittle or waspish as Rex. Whereas Rex is regal and aloof, Edward is about as standoffish as a teddy bear. Or, as Mulhare sums it up: "We're both tall and long-faced and we speak standard English. I've always liked the light style of acting, and Rex, of course, is a past master of it But, otherwise, we are not at all similar." Like Captain Gregg. the ghost he portrays, Mulhare. 46, has never married. Unlike the Captain, "I have nothing against marriage; I've just never gotten around to it." Why not? Even Mulhare doesn't know, or isn't saying. It surely isn't for lack of opportunity As the No.

The scene in which Charles Alexander Swann (Dawson) attempts to strangle Margot Mary Wendice (Kelly), only to be himself stabbed with a pair of scis- sors, caused Hitchcock great anxiety. Although the entire film was shot in just 36 days, this single scene required a full week of rehearsals and multiple takes to get the choreography and timing right.

The film has been called a superb commentary on watching films, on loneliness, and on obsession, as well as a sharp critique of the male psyche. But at its essence, Rear Window is a paean to old-fashioned snooping. “Sure he’s a snooper, but aren’t we all?” said Hitchcock. “I’ll bet you that nine out of ten people, if they see a woman across the courtyard undressing for bed, or even a man puttering around in his room, will stay and look; no one turns away and says, ‘It’s none of my business.’ ” The original still: Grace Kelly and James Stewart.
