The Women Who Wrote Noir“I never met Ida Lupino, but I always wanted to,” wrote Martin Scorsese in the New York Times in 1995. “The six films she directed between 1949 and 1953 are remarkable chamber pieces that deal with challenging subjects in a clear, almost documentary fashion, and are a singular achievement in American cinema.”By David Hudsoncriterion.com/current/posts/93#books #literature #roman_noir #movies #culture
@gutenberg_org She was an amazing woman.
@gutenberg_org I liked her work on Boris Karloff's Thriller. Especially the episodes Mr George, & Murder on the Rocks.
@gutenberg_org Really poor article. Headline about Ida Lupino, but only two of the six films she directed are mentioned and then the article diverges to other film noir. Get a better sense of who she was, plus information about the other four, from Wikipedia.
