This week's Acteurist-Oeuvre-view shows us two sides of Lilli Palmer: Bad Lilli in a comic supporting role, brawling with fellow chorus girl Ren\xe9e Houston and competing with a demure Margaret Lockwood over wealthy patrons in Carol Reed's\xa0A Girl Must Live\xa0(1939); and Good Lilli assuming\xa0the lead in B-mystery\xa0The Door with Seven Locks\xa0(1940), seeking adventure with comic sidekick Gina Malo. It ain't No\xebl Coward, but we had fun.\xa0
