Ida Lupino occupies a rare place in the history of cinema. Not only was she an actress, but she also wrote, directed, and produced movies in an era when it was rare for a woman to hold that kind of position and power. Born into a British acting dynasty, Lupino came to Hollywood in the '30s. Her acting roles in many films brought her fame long before she began working behind the camera in the 1950s. The program presents clips from Lupino's films and television show, as well as the recollections of colleagues, family, and friends. ~ Rose of Sharon Winter, Rovi
