1953 was a very good year
for Brit actress Ida Lupino on the other side of the camera as a film
director. In the spring of that year
her film, The Hitch-Hiker (now counted among the best film noir releases from that year), was
released theatrically … and at Christmas, it was The Bigamist.
Both films were directed
by Lupino, with scripts from her former husband, Collier Young and both films starred
Edmond O’Brien, with the latter, The Bigamist, also featuring Joan
Fontaine, Edmund Gwenn, Kenneth Tobey and Ida Lupino as the other woman in this
taut dramatic tale.
Word came this week that The
Bigamist has been received a hi-def restoration from the original 35mm
film elements and will be made available on DVD for collectors to enjoy on Mar.
25.
