Although Ida Lupino is best known as a leading actress in many Hollywood B movies, her work as a filmmaker has been neglected by critics, historians, and audiences. In the late 1940s, Lupino turned writer, producer, and director in her own independent production company.

Lupino is exceptional as the only woman to have directed a visible body of films in the male-dominated Hollywood of the 1950s.
