Bates and Beswick
If one or the other had gotten a sex change operation, they REALLY would look alike!
"I'm in such bad shape, I'm wearing prescription underwear." Phyllis Diller 1917-2012
They are very similar, and it's this similarity that makes the whole premise believable...
One of my favourite Hammer flix!

"The Opener of the Way is Waiting"
One of my favourites too! Martine Beswick is so beautiful, Ralph Bates was also very pretty (but not my type).
shareThe fact they looked so much alike made what would be a very far-fetched story seem very believable. Excellent job of casting. Definitely one of Hammers most underrated movies.
shareTHE HAMMER STORY BY Marcus Hearn& Alan Barnes
Just finished reading in time for SPOOKY HALLOWEEN!!!
In 1971 she lived in WEST LONDON with her PHOTOGRAPHER HUSBAND(her beauty got her a whitemans ringonit why didn't VANITY'S???) & former Hammer leading man John Richardson. Interviewed in the Dr Jekyll & Sister Hyde press book she offered her thoughts on the role. "Sister Hyde is incredibly, blatantly seXXXy, loves men, revels in being a woman.
THAT'S HOW WE ALL DREAM OF BEING. EVERY WOMAN'S FANTASY IS TO BE A WIFE IN THE KITCHEN & A WHORE IN THE BEDROOM. ANY GIRL WHO DENIES THAT IS LYING.
