On October 14 1893 black and white screen star Lillian Gish was born... so the theme for today are films with Lillian Gish-enjoy!
1 The Night of the Hunter (1955) Director: Charles Laughton/Charles Mitchum
Eerie film about a religious fanatic (Robert Mitchum) who is trying to uncover a large sum of money from a gullible widow;Mitchum is great in his role...
2 The Wind (1928) Director: Victor Sjostrom
Silent movie about a woman (Lillian Gish) who is trying to survive in Texas...
3 Duel in the Sun (1946) Director: King Vidor/Otto Brower/William Dieterie/Sidney Franklin/William Cameron Menzies/
David O. Selznick/Josef von Sternberg
Film about a woman (Jennifer Jones) who must pick between two brothers' affections; Jones was nominated for an Academy Award for her role & Lillian Gish was also nominated as family to the brothers...
As I have seen all but one film from the above list (The Wind) I look forward to your feedback... enjoy!
