Elsa Lanchester made her name as a comedienne and chantreuse in revue and cabaret in 1920s London, as well as an actress in the straight theatre and films. Such was her fame that H. G. Wells wrote three silent film 'shorts' especially for her, all made in 1928. It was around that time that she met and married Charles Laughton, whose own stage career was rocketing skyward. Hollywood soon beckoned and although Laughton was to become an international film star, Elsa found herself taking something of a back seat. She did play some excellent parts in early 1930s movies, such as Anne of Cleves in 'The Private Life of Henry VIII' with Laughton winning the Oscar for the title role, and she is still remembered even today as 'The Bride of Frankenstein' (1935). Her later films included an Oscar-nominated supporting role in 'Witness for the Prosecution' (1957) which again starred Charles Laughton.
The one Hollywood film in which she received top billing was a B-picture called 'Passport to Destiny,' released early in 1944. Halliwell's 'Film Guide' describes it as "one of the silliest movies ever made, even by the standards of wartime propaganda. The risible narrative makes no sense at all, though Lanchester acts as if her life depended on her performance."
In brief, Elsa plays a cockney charlady who believes she is protected by a 'lucky charm' owned by her late husband (shown in a photo to be Charles Laughton himself!). At the height of the London blitz she sets off to Berlin, armed with her bucket and brush and the 'lucky charm,' with the intention of assassinating Hitler. She stows away on a boat across the English Channel and then, by pretending to be deaf and dumb, scrubs her way across Occupied Europe to Germany. Language problems are solved by all the Germans speaking English! Elsa gets a cleaning job in Hitler's Chancellery (it looks remarkably like a Los Angeles bank) but he's out at the time so she doesn't get to assassinate him after all.
There's a sub-plot involving a good German officer whose girlfriend has been locked up by the Gestapo and it is with his help that Elsa is flown back to London. Back home she discovers that the so-called 'lucky charm' was in fact part of a job-lot of glass eyes! It is of course all pure nonsense but is uploaded here for its curiosity value and for Elsa's top-billed performance.

here we have:
"The Husband's Clock"
"Lola's saucepan"
"Linda and her Londonderry Air"
Among her stage work, Lanchester performed a long running nightclub act at the Turnabout Theatre in Hollywood, in which she performed gently naughty songs filled with double entendre and sexual innuendo: pieces like "Linda and Her Londonderry Air," "If You Peek in My Gazebo," or "When a Lady has a Piazza."
In 1957 and 1958, Lanchester recorded these tunes on two LPs for the HiFi Record label that you can find in thrift stores today: first "Songs for a Smoke Filled Room," then "Songs for a Shuttered Parlor." Both LPs featured song introductions by Laughton. In 1961, the albums were reissued as "Bawdy Cockney Songs" and "More Bawdy Cockney Songs," respectively, with Laughton's commentary omitted. A CD reissue of the 1961 versions is circulating today as "Elsa Lanchester Sings Bawdy Cockney Songs" with "Bride of Frankenstein" also prominently flagged on the cover. While her autobiography details her stage renditions of these songs, it neglects any mention of the recordings; it's clear Lanchester considered herself an actress and not a recording artist, let alone a singer: "I am, or was, a diseuse who tells a story rather than sings it."

A rare early silent movie short starring Elsa Lanchester with a cameo from Charles Laughton. Sadly, Elsa's Buster Keaton-esque charm was never again utilised. This Ivor Montague directed/H.G.Wells scripted comedy arrived at the very tail end of the silent era and talkies were just around the corner...
As criminals assemble for a convention, a policeman investigates and is abducted. A young woman finds his whistle and blows it. The full forces of the law assemble. The confrontation between order and disorder ensues, with our heroine caught up in it.

Elsa Lanchester
Elsa Sullivan Lanchester (28 October 1902 – 26 December 1986) was an English actress with a long career in theatre, film and television.
Lanchester studied dance as a child and after the First World War began performing in theatre and cabaret, where she established her career over the following decade. She met the actor Charles Laughton in 1927, and they were married two years later. She began playing small roles in British films, including the role of Anne of Cleves with Laughton in The Private Life of Henry VIII (1933). His success in American films resulted in the couple moving to Hollywood, where Lanchester played small film roles.
Her role as the title character in Bride of Frankenstein (1935) brought her recognition. She played supporting roles through the 1940s and 1950s. She was nominated for the Academy Award for Best Supporting Actress for Come to the Stable (1949) and Witness for the Prosecution (1957), the last of twelve films in which she appeared with Laughton. Following Laughton's death in 1962, Lanchester resumed her career with appearances in such Disney films as Mary Poppins (1964), That Darn Cat! (1965) and Blackbeard's Ghost (1968). The horror film Willard (1971) was highly successful, and one of her last roles was in Murder By Death (1976).

Charles Laughton
Charles Laughton (1 July 1899 – 15 December 1962) was an English stage and film character actor, director, producer and screenwriter who had a successful career in Hollywood.
Laughton was trained in London at the Royal Academy of Dramatic Art and first appeared professionally on the stage in 1926. In 1927, he was cast in a play with his future wife Elsa Lanchester, with whom he lived and worked until his death; they had no children.
He played a wide range of classical and modern parts, making a big impact in Shakespeare at the Old Vic. His film career took him to Broadway and then Hollywood, but he also collaborated with Alexander Korda on some of the most notable British films of the era, including The Private Life of Henry VIII.
Laughton, was one of the most recognisable and beloved character actors of his generation, and portrayed everything from monsters and misfits to kings. Among Laughton's biggest film-hits were The Barretts of Wimpole Street, Mutiny on the Bounty, Ruggles of Red Gap, Jamaica Inn, The Hunchback of Notre Dame, and The Big Clock. In his later career, he took up stage directing, notably in The Caine Mutiny Court Martial, and George Bernard Shaw's Don Juan in Hell, in which he also starred. He directed one film, the acclaimed thriller The Night of the Hunter.

Passport to Destiny
Passport to Destiny (1944) is a RKO Radio Pictures fantasy war film, starring Elsa Lanchester, in her only leading role, as an English cleaning woman who, believing herself invulnerable by being protected by a magic eye amulet, travels to Nazi Germany to personally assassinate Adolf Hitler.
Plot
Ella Muggins (Elsa Lanchester) is a Camberwell cleaning woman who is the widow of a regimental sergeant major. One day during the London Blitz, she relates to her friends a story about a "magic eye" charm that her husband obtained during his Army service in India that protected him from all harm. Whilst cleaning her attic, she goes through her husband's effects and finds the charm that she absent-mindedly puts in the pocket of her skirt.
During an air raid, she is caught in the middle of the street with a delay-action bomb. One air raid warden tells her to run, another to lie down. She does the latter and survives the explosion, though she is helped to the shelter in a daze. As she recovers, she is convinced that her husband's "Magic Eye" charm has protected her. She asks a friend what she would do if she were totally invulnerable. Looking up to the street being bombed, her friend replies that she would go to Germany and "give that Mr. Hitler what for". Ella leaves the shelter, unconcerned about the bombs exploding around her, as she sets out to do just that.

Elsa Lanchester made her name as a comedienne and chantreuse in revue and cabaret in 1920s London, as well as an actress in the straight theatre and films. Such was her fame that H. G. Wells wrote three silent film 'shorts' especially for her, all made in 1928. It was around that time that she met and married Charles Laughton, whose own stage career was rocketing skyward. Hollywood soon beckoned and although Laughton was to become an international film star, Elsa found herself taking something of a back seat. She did play some excellent parts in early 1930s movies, such as Anne of Cleves in 'The Private Life of Henry VIII' with Laughton winning the Oscar for the title role, and she is still remembered even today as 'The Bride of Frankenstein' (1935). Her later films included an Oscar-nominated supporting role in 'Witness for the Prosecution' (1957) which again starred Charles Laughton.
The one Hollywood film in which she received top billing was a B-picture called 'Passport to Destiny,' released early in 1944. Halliwell's 'Film Guide' describes it as "one of the silliest movies ever made, even by the standards of wartime propaganda. The risible narrative makes no sense at all, though Lanchester acts as if her life depended on her performance."
In brief, Elsa plays a cockney charlady who believes she is protected by a 'lucky charm' owned by her late husband (shown in a photo to be Charles Laughton himself!). At the height of the London blitz she sets off to Berlin, armed with her bucket and brush and the 'lucky charm,' with the intention of assassinating Hitler. She stows away on a boat across the English Channel and then, by pretending to be deaf and dumb, scrubs her way across Occupied Europe to Germany. Language problems are solved by all the Germans speaking English! Elsa gets a cleaning job in Hitler's Chancellery (it looks remarkably like a Los Angeles bank) but he's out at the time so she doesn't get to assassinate him after all.
There's a sub-plot involving a good German officer whose girlfriend has been locked up by the Gestapo and it is with his help that Elsa is flown back to London. Back home she discovers that the so-called 'lucky charm' was in fact part of a job-lot of glass eyes! It is of course all pure nonsense but is uploaded here for its curiosity value and for Elsa's top-billed performance.

here we have:
"The Husband's Clock"
"Lola's saucepan"
"Linda and her Londonderry Air"
Among her stage work, Lanchester performed a long running nightclub act at the Turnabout Theatre in Hollywood, in which she performed gently naughty songs filled with double entendre and sexual innuendo: pieces like "Linda and Her Londonderry Air," "If You Peek in My Gazebo," or "When a Lady has a Piazza."
In 1957 and 1958, Lanchester recorded these tunes on two LPs for the HiFi Record label that you can find in thrift stores today: first "Songs for a Smoke Filled Room," then "Songs for a Shuttered Parlor." Both LPs featured song introductions by Laughton. In 1961, the albums were reissued as "Bawdy Cockney Songs" and "More Bawdy Cockney Songs," respectively, with Laughton's commentary omitted. A CD reissue of the 1961 versions is circulating today as "Elsa Lanchester Sings Bawdy Cockney Songs" with "Bride of Frankenstein" also prominently flagged on the cover. While her autobiography details her stage renditions of these songs, it neglects any mention of the recordings; it's clear Lanchester considered herself an actress and not a recording artist, let alone a singer: "I am, or was, a diseuse who tells a story rather than sings it."

Elsa Lanchester made her name as a comedienne and chantreuse in revue and cabaret in 1920s London, as well as an actress in the straight theatre and films. Such was her fame that H. G. Wells wrote three silent film 'shorts' especially for her, all made in 1928. It was around that time that she met and married Charles Laughton, whose own stage career was rocketing skyward. Hollywood soon beckoned and although Laughton was to become an international film star, Elsa found herself taking something of a back seat. She did play some excellent parts in early 1930s movies, such as Anne of Cleves in 'The Private Life of Henry VIII' with Laughton winning the Oscar for the title role, and she is still remembered even today as 'The Bride of Frankenstein' (1935). Her later films included an Oscar-nominated supporting role in 'Witness for the Prosecution' (1957) which again starred Charles Laughton.
The one Hollywood film in which she received top billing was a B-picture called 'Passport to Destiny,' released early in 1944. Halliwell's 'Film Guide' describes it as "one of the silliest movies ever made, even by the standards of wartime propaganda. The risible narrative makes no sense at all, though Lanchester acts as if her life depended on her performance."
In brief, Elsa plays a cockney charlady who believes she is protected by a 'lucky charm' owned by her late husband (shown in a photo to be Charles Laughton himself!). At the height of the London blitz she sets off to Berlin, armed with her bucket and brush and the 'lucky charm,' with the intention of assassinating Hitler. She stows away on a boat across the English Channel and then, by pretending to be deaf and dumb, scrubs her way across Occupied Europe to Germany. Language problems are solved by all the Germans speaking English! Elsa gets a cleaning job in Hitler's Chancellery (it looks remarkably like a Los Angeles bank) but he's out at the time so she doesn't get to assassinate him after all.
There's a sub-plot involving a good German officer whose girlfriend has been locked up by the Gestapo and it is with his help that Elsa is flown back to London. Back home she discovers that the so-called 'lucky charm' was in fact part of a job-lot of glass eyes! It is of course all pure nonsense but is uploaded here for its curiosity value and for Elsa's top-billed performance.

BLUEBOTTLES starring Elsa Lanchester (1928)
A rare early silent movie short starring Elsa Lanchester with a cameo from Charles Laughton. Sadly, Elsa's Buster Keaton-esque charm was never again utilised. This Ivor Montague directed/H.G.Wells scripted comedy arrived at the very tail end of the silent era and talkies were just around the corner... As criminals assemble for a convention, a policeman investigates and is abducted. A young woman finds his whistle and blows it. The full forces of the law assemble. The confrontation between order and disorder ensues, with our heroine caught up in it.

From the 1944 movie Passport to Destiny which featured Elsa Lanchester in a rare leading role. This clip shows Elsa as her character Ella Muggins, a charlady who discovers a 'magic eye' charm among her deceased husbands posessions. Believing the charm has helped her survive a bombing raid and made her immune from all harm, she travels to Germany in an attempt to assassinate Adolf Hitler. She manages to sneak into his private office while he is out and rehearses an imaginary speech to him while she lies in wait.... ****Clip is property of R.K.O Radio pictures**** http://www.facebook.com/WeWantABiopicOfCharlesLaughtonAndElsaLanchester?fref=ts#!/WeWantABiopicOfCharlesLaughtonAndElsaLanchester?fref=ts

Elsa Lanchester in 'Passport to Destiny' (1944)
Elsa Lanchester made her name as a comedienne and chantreuse in revue and cabaret in 1920s London, as well as an actress in the straight theatre and films. Such was her fame that H. G. Wells wrote three silent film 'shorts' especially for her, all made in 1928. It was around that time that she met and married Charles Laughton, whose own stage career was rocketing skyward. Hollywood soon beckoned and although Laughton was to become an international film star, Elsa found herself taking something of a back seat. She did play some excellent parts in early 1930s movies, such as Anne of Cleves in 'The Private Life of Henry VIII' with Laughton winning the Oscar for the title role, and she is still remembered even today as 'The Bride of Frankenstein' (1935).

elsa lanchester sings "bawdy cockney songs"
here we have: "The Husband's Clock" "Lola's saucepan" "Linda and her Londonderry Air" Among her stage work, Lanchester performed a long running nightclub act at the Turnabout Theatre in Hollywood, in which she performed gently naughty songs filled with double entendre and sexual innuendo: pieces like "Linda and Her Londonderry Air," "If You Peek in My Gazebo," or "When a Lady has a Piazza." In 1957 and 1958, Lanchester recorded these tunes on two LPs for the HiFi Record label that you can find in thrift stores today: first "Songs for a Smoke Filled Room," then "Songs for a Shuttered Parlor." Both LPs featured song introductions by Laughton. In 1961, the albums were reissued as "Bawdy Cockney Songs" and "More Bawdy Cockney Songs," respectively, with Laughton's commentary omitted.

Thumbs Up (1943) with Elsa Lanchester
This is one of a trio of films that Elsa Lanchester made in the mid forties (the other two being 'Forever and a Day' and 'Passport to Destiny') to help promote the war effort. She takes a sizable co-starring role here and even manages to fit in a couple of song and dance numbers-watch out for Elsa doing the jive!

Elsa Lanchester made her name as a comedienne and chantreuse in revue and cabaret in 1920s London, as well as an actress in the straight theatre and films. Such was her fame that H. G. Wells wrote three silent film 'shorts' especially for her, all made in 1928. It was around that time that she met and married Charles Laughton, whose own stage career was rocketing skyward. Hollywood soon beckoned and although Laughton was to become an international film star, Elsa found herself taking something of a back seat. She did play some excellent parts in early 1930s movies, such as Anne of Cleves in 'The Private Life of Henry VIII' with Laughton winning the Oscar for the title role, and she is still remembered even today as 'The Bride of Frankenstein' (1935). Her later films included an Oscar-nominated supporting role in 'Witness for the Prosecution' (1957) which again starred Charles Laughton.
The one Hollywood film in which she received top billing was a B-picture called 'Passport to Destiny,' released early in 1944. Halliwell's 'Film Guide' describes it as "one of the silliest movies ever made, even by the standards of wartime propaganda. The risible narrative makes no sense at all, though Lanchester acts as if her life depended on her performance."
In brief, Elsa plays a cockney charlady who believes she is protected by a 'lucky charm' owned by her late husband (shown in a photo to be Charles Laughton himself!). At the height of the London blitz she sets off to Berlin, armed with her bucket and brush and the 'lucky charm,' with the intention of assassinating Hitler. She stows away on a boat across the English Channel and then, by pretending to be deaf and dumb, scrubs her way across Occupied Europe to Germany. Language problems are solved by all the Germans speaking English! Elsa gets a cleaning job in Hitler's Chancellery (it looks remarkably like a Los Angeles bank) but he's out at the time so she doesn't get to assassinate him after all.
There's a sub-plot involving a good German officer whose girlfriend has been locked up by the Gestapo and it is with his help that Elsa is flown back to London. Back home she discovers that the so-called 'lucky charm' was in fact part of a job-lot of glass eyes! It is of course all pure nonsense but is uploaded here for its curiosity value and for Elsa's top-billed performance.

here we have:
"The Husband's Clock"
"Lola's saucepan"
"Linda and her Londonderry Air"
Among her stage work, Lanchester performed a long running nightclub act at the Turnabout Theatre in Hollywood, in which she performed gently naughty songs filled with double entendre and sexual innuendo: pieces like "Linda and Her Londonderry Air," "If You Peek in My Gazebo," or "When a Lady has a Piazza."
In 1957 and 1958, Lanchester recorded these tunes on two LPs for the HiFi Record label that you can find in thrift stores today: first "Songs for a Smoke Filled Room," then "Songs for a Shuttered Parlor." Both LPs featured song introductions by Laughton. In 1961, the albums were reissued as "Bawdy Cockney Songs" and "More Bawdy Cockney Songs," respectively, with Laughton's commentary omitted. A CD reissue of the 1961 versions is circulating today as "Elsa Lanchester Sings Bawdy Cockney Songs" with "Bride of Frankenstein" also prominently flagged on the cover. While her autobiography details her stage renditions of these songs, it neglects any mention of the recordings; it's clear Lanchester considered herself an actress and not a recording artist, let alone a singer: "I am, or was, a diseuse who tells a story rather than sings it."

Elsa Lanchester in 'Passport to Destiny' (1944)
Elsa Lanchester made her name as a comedienne and chantreuse in revue and cabaret in 1920s London, as well as an actress in the straight theatre and films. Such was her fame that H. G. Wells wrote three silent film 'shorts' especially for her, all made in 1928. It was around that time that she met and married Charles Laughton, whose own stage career was rocketing skyward. Hollywood soon beckoned and although Laughton was to become an international film star, Elsa found herself taking something of a back seat. She did play some excellent parts in early 1930s movies, such as Anne of Cleves in 'The Private Life of Henry VIII' with Laughton winning the Oscar for the title role, and she is still remembered even today as 'The Bride of Frankenstein' (1935).

Elsa Lanchester made her name as a comedienne and chantreuse in revue and cabaret in 1920s London, as well as an actress in the straight theatre and films. Such was her fame that H. G. Wells wrote three silent film 'shorts' especially for her, all made in 1928. It was around that time that she met and married Charles Laughton, whose own stage career was rocketing skyward. Hollywood soon beckoned and although Laughton was to become an international film star, Elsa found herself taking something of a back seat. She did play some excellent parts in early 1930s movies, such as Anne of Cleves in 'The Private Life of Henry VIII' with Laughton winning the Oscar for the title role, and she is still remembered even today as 'The Bride of Frankenstein' (1935). Her later films included an Oscar-nominated supporting role in 'Witness for the Prosecution' (1957) which again starred Charles Laughton.
The one Hollywood film in which she received top billing was a B-picture called 'Passport to Destiny,' released early in 1944. Halliwell's 'Film Guide' describes it as "one of the silliest movies ever made, even by the standards of wartime propaganda. The risible narrative makes no sense at all, though Lanchester acts as if her life depended on her performance."
In brief, Elsa plays a cockney charlady who believes she is protected by a 'lucky charm' owned by her late husband (shown in a photo to be Charles Laughton himself!). At the height of the London blitz she sets off to Berlin, armed with her bucket and brush and the 'lucky charm,' with the intention of assassinating Hitler. She stows away on a boat across the English Channel and then, by pretending to be deaf and dumb, scrubs her way across Occupied Europe to Germany. Language problems are solved by all the Germans speaking English! Elsa gets a cleaning job in Hitler's Chancellery (it looks remarkably like a Los Angeles bank) but he's out at the time so she doesn't get to assassinate him after all.
There's a sub-plot involving a good German officer whose girlfriend has been locked up by the Gestapo and it is with his help that Elsa is flown back to London. Back home she discovers that the so-called 'lucky charm' was in fact part of a job-lot of glass eyes! It is of course all pure nonsense but is uploaded here for its curiosity value and for Elsa's top-billed performance.
