However, for as long as Rose can remember she has wanted to know who her biological parents are and the facts of her true identity…🎬
Reviews:Rotten Tomatoes: Rose Plays Julie uses a woman’s quest to know her biological parents as the foundation for an unsettling story that compellingly confounds. 95%
Empire: Rose Plays Julie is impactful and unsettling, heightened by slippery performances and enigmatic visual construction.
BFI: a mythic film about women. Playing the character of Julie, Rose explores acting as a way to get closer to her birth mother.

🎞️Films@Heart presents The Hitch-Hiker
The next Films@Heart screening is not to be missed! Ida Lupino’s The Hitch-Hiker is a thrilling 1553 American Noir - the first one to be directed by a woman!
Inspired by the true-life murder spree of serial killer Billy Cook, THE HITCH-HIKER is a tension-laden saga of two men on a camping trip (Edmond O’Brien and Frank Lovejoy) who are held captive by a homicidal drifter (William Talman). He forces them, at gunpoint, to embark on a grim joyride across the Mexican desert.
This film kicks off our Women Director Series - three films by women directors, across three months. The film will be followed by an opportunity for discussion about women in film, and Lupino herself.
Ida Lupino has been called the mother of American Independent film, and a pioneer for women behind the camera. She began as an actress, and went onto become a screenwriter, producer and director. Throughout her 48-year career, she appeared in 59 films and directed eight.
