Scotty" Beal( April 14, 1890 – July 10, 1973) was a film Assistant director. <P1-S1> Born in Quinnesec, Michigan, he began his career as an actor in 1915, before switching to the other side of the camera the following year. <P1-S2> He also occasionally doubled up as a production manager and a cinematographer. <P1-S3> As an assistant director, he worked on Tod Browning's" Dracula"( 1931) and Robert Florey's" Murders in the Rue Morgue'( 1932). <SEP> <P2-S0> Robert Florey( 14 September 1900 – 16 May 1979) was a French- American director, screenwriter, film journalist and actor. <P2-S1> Born as Robert Fuchs in Paris, he became an orphan at an early age and was then raised in Switzerland. <P2-S2> In 1920 he worked at first as a film journalist, then as an assistant and extra in featurettes from Louis Feuillade. <P2-S3> Florey moved to the United States in 1921. <P2-S4> As a director, Florey's most productive decades were the 1930s and 1940s, working on relatively low- budget fillers for Paramount and Warner Brothers. <P2-S5> His reputation is balanced between his avant- garde expressionist style, most evident in his early career, and his work as a fast, reliable studio- system director called on to finish troubled projects, such as 1939's" Hotel Imperial". <P2-S6> He directed more than 50 movies. <P2-S7> His most popular film is likely the first Marx Brothers feature" The Cocoanuts" of 1929, and his 1932 foray into Universal- style horror," Murders in the Rue Morgue" is regarded by horror fans as highly reflective of German expressionism. <P2-S8> In 2006, as his 1937 film" Daughter of Shanghai" was selected for preservation in the United States National Film Registry by the Library of Congress, Florey was called" widely acclaimed as the best director working in major studio B-films". <SEP> <P3-S0> Kala Keerthi Dharmasiri Bandaranayake( born 06th of October 1949) is a Sri Lankan film director and playwright. <P3-S1> Bandaranyake's debut" Hansa Vilak" in 1980 dealt with facets of a society at odds with itself. <P3-S2> His other films like" Thunveni Yamaya"( 1983)," Suddilage Kathaawa"( 1984)," Bawa Duka" and" Bawa Karma"( 1997) followed similar themes. <P3-S3> " Bawa Duka" and" Bawa Karma" challenged the repressive dogma of Buddhism in Sri Lanka. <P3-S4> Common arcs in Bandaranayake's films follow the conflicted lives of men and women, transformation of private lives into public affairs, the unpleasant reality of marriage and society and the dark side of human desire. <P3-S5> Dharmasiri Bandaranayake is an acclaimed dramatist. <P3-S6> " Eka AdhipathiMakarakshayaDhawala BheeshanaYakshagamanaya" and" Trojan Kanthavo" have all dealt with current issues of national and political importance. <P3-S7> He is an artist who attempts to connect the sociopolitical environment with the civil society through art. <SEP> <P4-S0> Hanro Smitsman, born in 1967 in Breda( Netherlands), is a writer and director of film and television. <SEP> <P5-S0> Murders in the Rue Morgue is a 1932 American pre-Code horror film, very loosely based on Edgar Allan Poe's short story "The Murders in the Rue Morgue". <P5-S1> Bela Lugosi, one year after his performance as Dracula, portrays a lunatic scientist who abducts women and injects them with blood from his ill-tempered caged ape. <P5-S2> Karl Freund's cinematography and Robert Florey's direction have been praised by critics and characterized as "expressionistic" by Leonard Maltin. <P5-S3> Despite the film being pre-Code, violent sequences prompted Universal to cut its running time from 80 minutes to 61 minutes. <P5-S4> This film was produced as a compensatory package for Lugosi and Florey after both were dropped from 1931's "Frankenstein". <P5-S5> Lugosi originally had been cast as Dr. Frankenstein, and the film was to be directed by Florey, who had been developing the coveted project. <P5-S6> Lugosi subsequently was demoted to play the mute monster, however, which he claimed to have turned down. <P5-S7> Florey was replaced as director by James Whale because producer Carl Laemmle was unsatisfied with Florey's work on the project, and he had given Whale first choice of any Universal property at the time. <P5-S8> The box-office results for "Murders in the Rue Morgue" were disappointing, and Lugosi's original Universal contract for "Dracula" was not extended. <P5-S9> Today, however, the film generally is well-regarded by critics and is considered a cult classic.
