19 Clifton, Elmer

1890-1949

   Rex Lease, Buck Jones, Johnny Mack Brown, Bob Steele, entre otros heroes del western, forman parte de la nomina de actores a los que dirigio Elmer Clifton en algunas de las peliculas de sus series respectivas. Una obra abundante la de este director- guionista-actor, dominada por westerns y peliculas dramaticas, tanto mudas como sonoras. Cuando estaba dirigiendo No Wanted, 1949, cayo enfermo, siendo reemplazado por la actriz de la pelicula, Ida Lupino, quien desde entonces le tomo gusto a eso de dirigir peliculas. La ultima de Clifton, The Silver Bandit, es postuma porque el director iba a morir, precisamente, en el ano 1949.
