Lillian Gish on #CharlesLaughton, who directed her in Night of the Hunter: “Charles Laughton was one of the most intelligent men I ever knew. He was a great actor — but he was also a poet. He directed like an actor — he understood what we needed, because he had lived it.” #FilmSky #LillianGish

THE NIGHT of the HUNTER (1955), the only film directed (beautifully) by Charles Laughton. #LillianGish #RobertMitchum #ShelleyWinters
🎬 #LaNocheDelCazador. Una Obra Maestra incontestable (con claras reminiscencias al expresionismo alemán) que cuenta con uno de los personajes más escalofriantes de toda la historia del cine: el reverendo Harry Powell. Descomunales #RobertMitchum y #LillianGish 🔝
📝 8.5/10
Diane Arbus revisits these orphans of the storm, Lillian (BOTD) and Dorothy Gish, in this 1964 photo. Their fur coats flecked with snow, they still look beautiful, and in Lillian’s case, indomitable enough to live another 30 years.

"I never approved of talkies. Silent movies were well on their way to developing an entirely new art form. It was not just pantomime, but something wonderfully expressive."

It's a hard world for little things.
Apparently Night of the Hunter is turning 70 which weirdly seems young for something so elemental. Absolute masterpiece.
