Banner Productions, 1942 Lugosi again with stare made of kittens & honey, behind it teeth. brides prefer orchids to prepare them for the long sleep How he fills the screen with his madness, love. a wedding day a celebration a funeral home on call All he wants is his wife forever to be young & beautiful. lovely wives leave the loneliest widowers With his charm, he could play devoted Valentino, but always in his heart, & ours, the Count… “death do us part” they say & then it does …like a yellowing blurry photograph of bodies in a place reporters speak of as their morgue. ✱✱✱
