Noted Hollywood director whose career spanned an incredible total of 67 years. Vidor directed his first film in 1913 and his final one in 1980. Even after his death Vidor would make news when in 1986 author Sidney Kirkpatrick alleged in his book A Cast of Killers that Vidor had solved the 1922 murder of fellow Hollywood director William Desmond Taylor.
