Yep, another great slice of classic tv pizza! Thanks!

[@PizzaFLIX]

Hi Jett 🍕Thanks for watching PizzaFLIX. May the Sauce be with you.🍕

[@jmbrinck]

Ida Lupino was married for a time to my great uncle, Collier Young. How I wish I had met them both. Two great talents. Thank you for honoring Ida Lupino by sharing this. And a nod to William Talman. He played bad and good with authenticity.

[@gloriamontgomery6900]

What a wonderful family connection!

[@peytonbuzz]

What a pioneer....she could do it all...in front and behind the camera...love her!!

[@lilymarie4030]

Years ago, I remember an interview with an actress, I can't remember who. Anyway, she said that Ida was much more beautiful in person than she appeared on screen. Not that Ida wasn't beautiful on screen, but much more so in person. She was one of the best!

[@2degucitas]

She was a pioneer. Respect.

[@ralpharchbold2454]

Yeah very beautiful and extremely clever

[@michaeltuz608]

Much like her earlier character Marie from High Sierra, Ida Lupino's Ellen is not a bad girl, just a young woman who has had some bad breaks and made some poor choices. No one ever played such a character as well as Ida Lupino. This is among her best performances. Thanks for posting this obsure gem!

Ida Lupino never got the recognition she deserved.

[@isabelmcdonald2855]

forgot to say thank you for this film Pizza Fix, I love Ida Lupino. I am working with one arthritic hand at the moment as I broke the other hand last week, so too busy concentrating on the pain that I forgot to express my gratitude.

[@PizzaFLIX]

Hope you feel better. May the Sauce be with you.

[@dianeparr2483]

Isabel, sorry about the broken hand. And understand about the arthritis 😟😟🙁🙁

[@warrenwilson4818]

Ditto. Ida Lupino is brilliant. Surprise! Doing a "TV show.")? Was this part of some series? No clues. But thanks a lot. Caught it on the first day!!!

[@1000mindy]

Four Star Playhouse was a TV series. She was in several TV shows. Directed several too.

[@fromthesidelines]

Ida was originally a "partner" in Four Star, and appeared on the "PLAYHOUSE" on a rotating basis with Dick Powell, Charles Boyer and David Niven.

[@kjun03]

Thank you!!!

[@chadkincham]

Dude played Hamilton Burger, Perry Mason's rival, the prosecutor.

[@fromthesidelines]

Ida featured Bill Talman in a movie she co-produced and directed in 1953, "The Hitch-Hiker".

[@jamesyates1432]

I read that he was gay and the producers of "Perry Mason" tried to fire him for it. Raymond Burr stood up and said "he's not going anywhere or I'm out". Needless to say, he kept his job.

[@inganorden1816]

​@@jamesyates1432Good for him! In those days, being gay was a career ender. So many talented people had to live a lie for decades and must have been profoundly unhappy. Glad that this has changed. I always thought that "Hamilton Burger" could have played Joseph Cotton's brother, similar features.

[@BrittMFH]

Good one, thanks!

[@Nixfix76]

Ida is my new favorite actress. Love her!

[@muse7746]

[@dianalee8967]

I wanted it to continue she's such a great actress oh sorry when it ended

[@Comedybrand]

I knew the music sounded familiar; It's the Four Star Playhouse and the episode is Eddie's place.

[@paxwallacejazz]

At 14 she was playing adult fem fetals she was super intelligent and came from a show biz family in England.

[@2degucitas]

Really, that young? Wow.

[@bovnycccoperalover3579]

"Lupino" means little wolf in Italian. Her family originally came from Italy and then moved to Britain a long time ago.

[@ThePiratemachine]

Ida Lupino is good. A producer also. A great, real talent.

[@doreekaplan2589]

A first female DIRECTOR

[@NYC-1975]

That's hilarious...assuming you know she directed it LMAO!!

[@kayjackson8922]

LOL

[@bonniewep]

Ida directed the hitchhiker movie - she was multi talented, too bad she succumbed to alcoholism later in life

[@fromthesidelines]

Before he became "the D.A. who always lost to Perry Mason" every week, Talman usually portrayed unsavory and dangerous people in films and TV guest appearances.

[@katiezee2]

He slaps her then she kisses him...NO, girl , no

[@MOGGS1942]

It just goes to show. 😁

[@michelejohnson6459]

Violence against women was very common then. Not the good old days for women. 😪

[@lavendardust]

I felt so bad for her. She just wanted a job.

[@BernardProfitendieu]

Hamilton Berger overlooked one important fact: she had been trained in chair in prison.

[@TheCalico72]

Excellent 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

[@cynthiahawkins2389]

Ida did a lot of television and worked so much, I think maybe she had troubles in her marriages. Financial, I mean. But what a pro the lady was.

[@sharonh988]

Thanks

[@shaharazon2449]

Ida Lapino. always great!!! . but.."Eddie Eddie." .geeze girl. lmao

[@mikejohnson599]

in his final days he wished he never took up smoking i hope some ppl heeded his words

[@fromthesidelines]

She previously directed William Tallman in the 1953 feature film "The Hitch-Hiker", and a 1956 episode of "SCREEN DIRECTORS PLAYHOUSE" {"Number Five Checked Out"}.

[@michaelwertzy9808]

William Talman from "Perry Mason"?

[@exquisite1401]

Hamilton Burger is charming! Seems so sincerely nice to her. Makes him attractive.

MA was I LOVE LUCY'S ditzy mom -- she's ultra serious here.

[@EYE_GOTCHA]

I first saw Kathryn Card in “I Love Lucy” reruns, as a child, but have since seen her in many movies. She was quite a versatile actress.

[@leadcloud8290]

Common problem for all Ida Lupino pics … too short, too short…

[@michaelreid6937]

Eddie seems to have issues with prop department wood. In 22:23 the chair was about 6 inches away and he passed out...upon regaining his footing he ran right through the balsa wood balcony railing to his death 😮
