"SUMMARY: "From "Pentimento," the memoirs of late playwright Lillian Hellman, JULIA covers those years in the 1930s when Lillian attained fame with the production of her first play "The Childrens' Hour" on Broadway. Not surprisingly, it centers on Lillian's relationship with her lifelong friend, Julia. It is a relationship that goes beyond mere acquaintance and one for which the word "love" seems appropriate. While Julia attends the University in Vienna, studying with such luminaries as Sigmund Freud and Albert Einstein, Lillian suffers through revisions of her play with her mentor and sometimes lover Dashiel Hammett at a New England beachhouse. After becoming a celebrated playwright, Lillian is invited to a writers conference in Russia. Julia, having taken up the battle against fascism, enlists Lillian en route to smuggle money through Nazi Germany which will assist in the Anti-Fascist cause. It is a dangerous mission especially for a Jewish intellectual on her way to communist Russia. During a brief meeting with Julia on this trip, Lillian learns that Julia has had a child which is called Lilly. Shortly after returning to the States, Lillian is informed of Julia's murder. The details of her death are shrouded in secrecy. Lillian sadly travels to England to search for her namesake the child she had promised Julia to care for."

""The story opens in 1934, in a beach house on the East Coast of the United States, where Lillian Hellman is living with Dashiell Hammett. Lillian, a writer, is having difficulty concentrating on her work and finds herself anxiously recalling her childhood friend, Julia. Julia had a strange beauty and was the product of a substantially wealthy family whom she detested. Literature, poetry, and Latin held her interest at a very early age, and she always seemed to be leading a rather tentative Lillian on whom she left an indelible impression. During the Twenties, from adolescence to adulthood, they spent a great deal of time sharing in each other's experiences and grew closer together. Julia then went to Oxford to study and then on to Vienna to study with Sigmund Freud, where she became involved with the anti-Nazi movement. While trying to finish her play, Lillian is only getting bits of information regarding her friend's whereabouts. At Dashiell Hammett's suggestion, Lillian goes to Paris to finish her play, and, while there, she reads of the violent deaths of two hundred people in Vienna, where Julia is living. Lillian receives a phone call asking her to come to Vienna, where she finds Julia in a hospital, unable to talk. Lillian returns to the hospital the next day to find that Julia has undergone a mysterious surgery and [to find] a note telling her to leave Vienna as fast as possible. She returns to Paris. Lillian telephones the hospital in Vienna to inquire about her friend's condition, and is informed that she was never there. Lillian returns to the United States and finds her rewritten play to be a rave success. In the midst of her success, two years have passed without any contact from Julia. Lillian is invited to attend a theater festival in Moscow, but her trip is interrupted in Paris by a friend of Julia's, and she is asked by the Underground to smuggle $50,000 belonging to Julia to Berlin. Reluctantly, she agrees and boards a train heading for Moscow via Berlin. The journey through France and Germany is terrifying and she becomes suspicious of everyone. She arrives in Berlin and finds, to her amazement, Julia. As a result of the mysterious operation in Vienna, she now has an artificial leg. Julia had a baby, who is Lillian's namesake, and she asks Lillian to take care of the baby when she comes to New York to have her leg examined. Lillian goes on to Moscow, where she receives a telegram informing her that the Nazis have killed Julia. Lillian quickly leaves for London and goes to see the undertaker who is holding the remains of Julia's mutilated body, and finds there is no trace of the doctor who delivered her body or the whereabouts of her baby. Lillian returns to the United States grieving the loss of her friend and frustrated by her inability to find her friend's daughter"--Videodisc sleeve."@en
