The “Sixteen millimeter shrine” was only the first time that Ida Lebino was involved with the “twilight”. Le Peno, the director of prolific production itself, also led the famous episode “masks” (March 20, 1964). That was the episode in which the deadly millionaire was described by Jason Foster (Robert Keith), his four -generous relatives to his home to play a game. Jason knows that the Quartet is waiting for him only to die so that they can inherit his wealth and face them. He says he can have money, as long as they wear theatrical masks all night. He says, masks are their weak internal character. One of them is brutal, another weakness, etc. In the end, the faces of the guests mutate under masks to suit what they look outside. It is a well -loved loop that makes the best 10 menus.

Because of these two episodes, Eda Lubino has some differences in the history of “Twilight Zone”. “For one of them, she is the only woman who removed an episode of the show. For another, she is the only actress who was directed in the series, and the only director who behaves.

Lupino, like her counterpart, became “Twilight Zone”, a star in the thirties of the last century, where she was behaving in multiple films per year as a leading young woman. She appeared in dozens of films throughout the thirties and forties, becoming one of the leading actresses in Hollywood. In 1949, Lebino participated in directing her first advantage, a pregnancy drama called “unnecessary”. She did not get a balance (her participating manager was credited, Elmer Clifton, instead), but the experiment led to further directing jobs throughout the fifties. In 1953, it was directed “The Hitch-Hike” and “The Bigamist” in the same year.

In 1958, Lebino directed the first episode of the TV, as it supervised the production on “Mr. Adams and Eve”, a show that was the main actress as well. She would go to “The Rifleman” rings, ” “Jelgan Island” (yes, seriously)And “magic”. Her career lasted until 1966, when she managed to “Trouble with Angels”, starring Hayley Mills. Her style of guidance was normal, and in many cases, documentaries are similar, a welcoming exit from many patterns of filmmaking the most exotic in the fifties. Lubino continued to act throughout her career in guidance and presented the emergence of television and films during the late 1970s. She appeared in an episode of “Charlie’s Angels” in 1977 and in the movie “My Boys Aro Good Boys” in 1978.

One may ask himself whether the creative “Twilight Zone”/writer/narrator Rod Serling has gone out, but may not do that.

Some actors in the “Al -Shafak Zone” will become filmmakers (Robert Redford, for example), And some managers made some acting in other projects (TV director Abner Berman, David Green and David Bitrir made some acting), but none of them dealt with a double duty, and the representation and guidance on the “twilight area”. This discrimination belongs to Lopino and Lopeno alone. Credit where it is worthy.
