The Hitch-Hiker
It's the 21st century and women film directors in America, while by no means rare, are still outnumbered by their male colleagues. This despite the fact that women behind the camera have a long history. Take Ida Lupino, an actress who directed several classic, tough B-movies in the 1940s and '50s, including The Hitch-Hiker, the only American noir by a woman.
