Synopsis
Who was Orson Welles? A fat guy with a deep voice who drank a lot of sherry? An unreliable film-maker who always went over time and over budget? One of the most innovative storytellers of the century? He was all of this and more, with his all-black voodoo version of Macbeth, his spoof radio broadcast of The War of the Worlds, and the film that many people consider the greatest American film ever made: Citizen Kane. This updated edition offers an introductory essay, each of Welles's films individually reviewed and analysed, and a handy multimedia reference guide.
