Dinah Shurey (1888 - 1963) was a British film producer and director of the late 1920s. Founder of Britannia Films and her own distribution company Showman Films, Shurey was the only female British film director of her day.〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://womenandsilentbritishcinema.wordpress.com/the-women/dinah-shurey/ )〕 In 1930, Shurey sued ''Film Weekly'' magazine for its hostile treatment of her film The Last Post and the assertion by the magazine's columnist Nerina Shute that women were incapable of directing films. Shurey won the case but by 1934 she was bankrupt.〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://discovery.nationalarchives.gov.uk/SearchUI/Details?uri=C5881087 )〕 No prints of The Last Post are known to survive and the film is one of the top ten films on the British Film Institute's most wanted list of lost British films.〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://www.bfi.org.uk/explore-film-tv/bfi-national-archive/archive-projects/bfi-most-wanted )〕 Paul Rotha compared Shurey to Harry Bruce Woolfe, calling her "an upstanding Empire loyalist" who "had made some quite atrocious films". ==Filmography== * Afraid of Love (1925) * Second to None (1926) * Every Mother's Son (1926) * ''Carry On'' (1927) * ''The Last Post'' (1929) 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Dinah Shurey」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
