SUBMITTED by Theresa Streb, Lyons Public Library (7-Feb-2011)
The second entry in the Lyons Public Library's Tough Dames on Film series is "Women's Prison" starring Ida Lupino, Cleo Moore and Howard Duff. The film will be shown on Sat., Feb. 19 at 2 p.m. in the Library's Community Room. Lupino often was cast in bad girl roles and she's no different in this movie. She plays a corrupt, sadistic warden of a women's prison who cares nothing for the prisoners. Lupino butts heads with a psychiatrist, played by Howard Duff (her real life husband), when he tries to improve conditions at the prison.
The parking lot for the Library may be entered from Phelps Street near the Town Hall. This program is free and hot chocolate and popcorn will be served. For more information, call the Lyons Public Library at (315) 946-9262 or email lyonslibrary@pwwl.org.
