THE PREMATURE DEATH OF HELEN McCRORY DREDGED MEMORIES OF PENNY DREADFUL FROM THE ABYSS OF AESTHETIC LONGINGS......



I loved PENNY DREADFUL more with each gorgeously appointed episode.......Especially.....the scene wherein Vanessa and Victor shop at "Gabriella ("G""Pescucci") Pescucci's shop within the episode......{Pescucci and Iris Van Herpen being my very favorite clothing/costume designers}.......or the scene wherein Dorian takes his new 'girlfriend', drag hooker Angelique, to a table tennis event.....or the touching scene between Caliban and Lavinia......The most spectacular sets and subtle special effects.........and, of course, the resplendant Eva Green! The diabolical Helen McCrory and the beautiful Reeve Carney .....The Series is a psychological, metaphysical, aesthetic Work Of Art..

of course, and as expected, the Series was cancelled....due to 'falling ratings'.....coming to an abrupt ending, hacked together from misc. footage.......Unlike such Series as 'SIX FEET UNDER' that had a Beginning, a Plan, Progress and well-considered End.......
