Which Director had the best run in the 50s?

I watched Who's Afraid of Virginia Woolf? tonight. It had been awhile. Such good shit.

never watched dune. has anyone? the movie is kind of a shit show. can see why lynch disavowed it. the original novel was inspired by herberts time on the dunes in oregon.

did not know that maureen o'sullivan who is most famous for playing jane in a series of tarzan movies opposite johnny weissmuller was mia farrows mother.

goldie hawn day on tcm. i missed her early wide-eyed 60s-infused avatar of free love roles like theres a girl in my soup instead coming in at her slightly more mature wide-eyed late 70s rom-com stage in movies like foul play or private benjamin. seems like old times, again paired with chevy chase, is on at six. i suspect it hasnt aged well, and it was never that good, but it was pleasantly not bad for an early 80s "whats on hbo for the 100th time" offering.
