Question: Which film has the director born first, In A Lonely Place or The Winning Of Sally Temple?

Florence Smythe( April 19, 1878 – August 29, 1925) was a stage actress who was in silent motion pictures for a brief time from 1915 to 1917. She was born in Santa Barbara, California. She was married to silent film actor Theodore Roberts. The couple met while Florence was a member of the Theodore Roberts theatrical company. They lived in Los Angeles, California at 1915 North Vine Street. Smythe was in six movies, namely" The Wild Goose Chase"( 1915)," The Fighting Hope"( 1915)," The Voice in the Fog"( 1915)," Common Ground"( 1916)," The Winning of Sally Temple"( 1917), and" The Silent Partner"( 1917). <SEP> The script was written by Andrew P. Solt from Edmund North's adaptation of Dorothy B. Hughes' 1947 novel of the same name. In a Lonely Place is a 1950 American film noir directed by Nicholas Ray and starring Humphrey Bogart and Gloria Grahame, produced for Bogart's Santana Productions. Bogart stars as Dixon Steele, a deranged and troubled screenwriter suspected of murder, and Grahame co-stars as Laurel Gray, a neighbor who falls under his spell. Beyond its surface plot of confused identity and tormented love, the story is a mordant comment on Hollywood mores and the pitfalls of celebrity and near- celebrity, similar to two other American films released that same year, Billy Wilder's" Sunset Boulevard" and Joseph L. Mankiewicz's" All About Eve". Although lesser known than his other work, Bogart's performance is considered by many critics to be among his finest and the film's reputation has grown over time along with Ray's. It is now considered a classic film noir, as evidenced by its inclusion on the" Time All- Time 100 List" as well as" Slant Magazine" s" 100 Essential Films." In 2007," In a Lonely Place" was selected for preservation in the United States National Film Registry by the Library of Congress as being" culturally, historically, or aesthetically significant." <SEP> George H. Melford( born George Henry Knauff, February 19, 1877 – April 25, 1961) was an American stage and film actor, director, producer, and screenwriter. Often taken for granted as a director today, the stalwart Melford's name by the 1920s was, like Cecil B. DeMille's, appearing in big bold letters above the title of his films. <SEP> Ray is also appreciated for many narrative features produced between 1947 and 1963 including" Bigger Than LifeJohnny GuitarThey Live by Night", and" In a Lonely Place", as well as an experimental work produced throughout the 1970s titled" We Ca n't Go Home Again", which was unfinished at the time of Ray's death from lung cancer. Ray's compositions within the CinemaScope frame and use of color are particularly well- regarded. Nicholas Ray( born Raymond Nicholas Kienzle Jr., August 7, 1911 – June 16, 1979) was an American film director best known for the movie" Rebel Without a Cause." Ray was an important influence on the French New Wave, with Jean- Luc Godard famously writing in a review of" Bitter Victorycinema is Nicholas Ray." <SEP> Claude Weisz is a French film director born in Paris. <SEP> The Winning of Sally Temple is a surviving 1917 American drama silent film directed by George Melford and written by Rupert Sargent Holland and Harvey F. Thew. The film stars Fannie Ward, Jack Dean, Walter Long, Horace B. Carpenter, William Elmer and Paul Weigel. The film was released on February 19, 1917, by Paramount Pictures.
