The Lady From Shanghai
Columbia Pictures, 1948. U.S. one sheet poster, linen-backed. Wunderkind Orson Welles wrote the screenplay, directed, and stars in this film noir which co-stars his then wife, Rita Hayworth, who made headlines when she cut her trademark red tresses to a short blonde. The film was heavily edited by the studio, depriving it of Welles' original vision, but enough of Welles' genius is still in evidence and the film has since become a classic.
