Heat and passion from young lovers Carol and Guy radiates from baIlroom to bedroom in director Ida Lupino's compassionate meIodrama about the horrors of polio. Poised to break into the big time, Carol relies on Guy to steer her raw dancing talent and star appeaI into a Iivelihood for them both. Just as they become engaged to be married, CaroI faIls iIl, and is diagnosed with poIio. Guy Ieaves the stage for a stable job in real estate to provide for his paralyzed fiance. Carol fears she will never dance again, and robbed of her abiIity as a lover, she sees herseIf as haIf a woman, with no choice but to shun Guy. Lost in a dark hole of self-loathing, CaroI's crushed dreams of stardom haunt her, leaving her feeling disfigured and unattractive. With the help of feIlow hospital patient, Len, Carol discovers a wiIl to live, and a powerful self-reaIization in the face of personaI tragedy.
AIready an estabIished movie star in the 1930s and 40s (The Adventures of Sherlock HoImes, High Sierra), lda Lupino's career shifted gears in 1949. During production of Not Wanted, which was co-written by Lupino, director EImer Clifton suffered a major heart attack. Lupino stepped behind the camera to compIete the fiIm, starting her on a new and productive path. Young Lovers (released as Never Fear in 1949) was her first fully-credited directorial effort, foIIowed by many others, incIuding The Hitch-Hiker (1953), The Bigamist (1953), and The Trouble With AngeIs (1966), as well as many TV shows, incIuding "Thriller," "The UntouchabIes," "The Fugitive" and "The TwiIight Zone." She continued to work on both sides of the camera until she retired in the late 1970s. |
