Lilith (film)

Lilith is a 1964 film written and directed by Robert Rossen. It is based on a novel by J. R. Salamanca and stars Warren Beatty, Jean Seberg, Peter Fonda, Kim Hunter and Gene Hackman.

Chestnut Lodge would not permit filming on location so those scenes were done in a vacant mansion rented by the production company, Centur Productions, on the North Shore of Long Island Locust Valley. Location shooting in Maryland was done in a private home in Rockville as well as in the downtown area, plus scenes at Great Falls on both the Maryland and Virginia sides of the Potomac River, as well as a staged carnival scene at Barnesville, Maryland. This was Rossens last film.In The New Biographical Dictionary of Film David Thomson describes Lilith as an oddity, the only one of Rossens films that seems passionate, mysterious and truly personal. The other films will look increasingly dated and selfcontained, but Lilith may grow. ........
