"XANADU: A CASTLE IN CLOUDS ... THE LIFE OF ORSON WELLES"
Celebrating the genius of this extraordinary artist with my published look at the turbulent life and career of Orson Welles, the fabulous, visionary film maker whose personal demons sadly overshadowed his staggering talent, and finally, tragically destroyed him.
Yet, in spite of his personal failings or, perhaps, because of them, Welles rose to become one of the most remarkable film makers of his, or any other generation.
From his groundbreaking first feature length motion picture "Citizen Kane," regarded by many still as the greatest single film in motion picture history, to "Touch Of Evil," his remarkable "Cinema Noir" tale of a squandered life and legacy corrupted by bribery and temptation, Welles remains one of the most extraordinary directors in the history of film.
His is a story of unwitting sabotaged achievement and haunting, incomparable genius.
Here, then, is "Xanadu: A Castle In Clouds ... The Life of Orson Welles."
