Imitation of Life Imitation of Life is a 1959 film directed by Douglas Sirk, adapted from Fannie Hurst's novel Imitation of Life, produced by Universal as a vehicle for Lana Turner. It is a remake of the 1934 Imitation of Life. The story was considerably altered so that the black housekeeper helps her white employer achieve fame as an actress instead of an entrepreneur. This version of Imitation of Life was director Douglas Sirk's final major film, and is considered one of his best.
