Wow! When conservative Charlton Heston speaks out on liberal Hollywood , listen

Welles could do anything! A man who entertained millions then and still to this day. An artist, writer, actor, director, radio performer. He was a genius! What a time audiences had then watching this master perform.

@0:50 Love the fruit next to Barry Norman. It sits there like Chekov's Gun.

In a 90 minute documentary, you get 5 minutes of Pauline Kael and she wipes everyone else out.

Amazing artist.

Welles’ great genius lay in inciting and encouraging the genius in others.

You two would enjoy Battle Over Citizen Kane, documentary gives a very different reason why "rosebud" was significant to Hearst/ Davies affair , lol , many informative docs on this film Barry Norman did a good one too.

Kane is literally me...

Wait a minute, there was no cane in Citizen Kane

Interestingly enough, Orson Welles had no idea this was being filmed. This is just how he spends his days alone at home.

I often listen to Orson Welles speeches/interviews before bed. I find his voice and mannerism very relaxing.

😊😊😊😊

So, if in a earlier film, someone does a scene with someone eating a cake with candles on it, and later, someone else does a scene, in thier film, with someone eating a cake... It's plagiarist.

Toland. That was the secret to it all. And the genius of Wells was, that even at that young age, he knew it. The only time the name of the director has appeared on the same screen side by side with that of the cinematographer.

It's impressive to think that Orson Welles was not yet 21 when the "Voodoo Macbeth" was produced.

What a great series! Never seen these before. Thank you so much for posting these!!

The much-missed Barry Norman. He *was* the film expert to me as I was growing up.

Pauline Kael and Co. were horrible people.

❤

The police's job is to protect the freedom of the individual, not to chase criminals thats an incidental part of his job. Pure truth

Thank you.

Orson Welles is God.

IMHO, the closest real-life similar experience is the full aircheck broadcast recording of Dallas radio station KLIF-AM from Nov 22, 1963. The upbeat, jovial disc jockey; the top 40 tunes, the cheery commercials interrupted with bulletins that shots were fired at the motorcade of President Kennedy, and you hear the tone go downhill as further news is released until the reporters take over. The flow is very reminiscent of WOTW.

Can't be boring 😴 folks ...we move on from dullesville 😉

New prose: Running 🏃‍♂️ out of time How does one, run out of time? When Time is on your side? Do you know your on the side of Time? Or on the side, of just about anything else out there? Or do you care? Do you know that Jesus Christ is Time? Or would you rather have someone tell you the time of day? Do you pray, and meditate on God's holy book? 📖 Or would you rather go fishing 🎣 in that there moving brook? It took a lot of human courage for God's Son, to go to the Cross ✝️ and literally be nailed there Or are you at a loss, about this? Or do you care? He went down to the depths of hell, for you So you, wouldn't have to go there God chose mercy, instead of Judgment Although Judgment Day is coming Can you feel the Last Days drumming? Your life is like hell I understand your plight - so much fear, you don't know whether to run, or fight So, why don't you let go, and let God And get yourself into the zone, of the Miracle Man Who walked upon water 💧 Just because He can And you can't Running out of time How does one run out of time? When Time is on your side

Genius

The scene that gets me is when you see the sled being covered by snow, and you hear the train whistle in the distance as Charles is being taken away from his family. The train whistle sounds almost hysterically mournful, like a child crying.

Astute not arrogant

This wonderfully charming man was also the Welles who later told people saying hello to him or asking for an autograph to 'go fuck yourself'. A genius, but a contradictory one.

Soleman had over a 1,000 wives. it is documented in the bible. Whether you are Catholic or Protestant. 1Kings 11:3. I don't really differentiate between wives and concubines. They were his and no one elses' as spouses.

It's like directing your own DVD bonus feature.

So anybody can play anybody.

I feel like I’m going back in a time capsule this is a treasure

i can't tell which stories are real and which ones are exagerated/made up lol

Great movie. Listening to Welles in interviews is also a great experience.

Funny how much his face lights up when he gets to use that Shakespeare quote at the end

I'm so glad these recordings still existed in the time of being available for BBC Four to screen then in the 21st Century. They could have easily fallen into the "Missing presumed wiped" category if they had been recorded to VT! Such a relief this wasn't the case. This episode in particular is still so relevant to today in 2023, since their recording in 1955, nothing much else has changed for the better.

"anyone who can stop a football match in Italian must be a little stronger than an optical illusion

isn't it weird how Orson Welles personality is almost modern

que locuraaa

EXCELLENT

This man could discuss any topic of the world, and I'd be enthralled.

Man's cruel to All , even a bull destined to its own senseless loss ! .,

The bull has n chance ,it's cold blood// killing of a ,predetermined , innocent animal ...Cruelty ; Disgusting ! .

Nothing but nothing admirable about , so called , bull fighting ! . Humans o display ; disgraceful ! ..,,,,

Glorified Coward = so called , Bull fighters !!!!! , Dispicabil , disgusting Cowards , dress as asses ! .

The Sight and Sound poll really declined in the new millenium. Today its meaningless. Citizen Kane is still the best film ever made. To have it superseded by a 3 hour film with a woman sitting in her kitchen is kind of sick. And The Godfather films are not in its class either. In his first film, Welles took directing to a point that no other American has ever matched, forget surpassed. He did this in both sound and visuals. Toland's photography alone revolutionized the cinema. The last sequence of the film is one of the greatest, if not the greatest, ever shot.
