[PAR] [TLE] Edgar G. Ulmer [SEP] Edgar Georg Ulmer () (September 17, 1904 – September 30, 1972) was a Jewish-Moravian, Austrian-American film director who mainly worked on Hollywood B movies and other low-budget productions.  His stylish and eccentric works came to be appreciated by auteur theory-espousing film critics over the years following his retirement.  Ulmer's most cherished productions are the bizarre Universal Horror film "The Black Cat" (1934) and the seminal film noir "Detour" (1945).  Most of his other films remain rather obscure. [PAR] [TLE] The Black Cat (1934 film) [SEP] The Black Cat is a 1934 American Pre-Code horror film directed by Edgar G. Ulmer and starring Béla Lugosi and Boris Karloff.  The picture was the first of eight movies (six of which were produced by Universal) to pair the two iconic actors.  It became Universal Pictures' biggest box office hit of the year, and was also notable for being one of the first movies with an almost continuous music score.  Lugosi also appeared in the 1941 film with the same title.
