|
Born in Cleveland, Ohio, on October 15, 1925, gorgeous and talented Virginia Leith starred in all too few films, with her most productive period coming
in the 1950s. Leith worked as a model before switching to acting in the early 1950s. Her first film appearance came in Stanley Kubrick's independent
feature Fear and Desire (1953; with Frank Silvera). Fear and Desire was also director Stanley Kubrick's first feature-length film, which
he shot on a shoestring budget of $13,000. The minimal budget did not allow for synchronized sound to be recorded when the film was shot, so it was filmed
silent and later dubbed. This film is difficult to find today, as Kubrick buried it out of embarrassment later in his career, dismissing it as amateurish.
