From such great radio works as \u003ci\u003e\"War of the Worlds\"\u003c\/i\u003e to his cinematic masterpieces \u003ci\u003eCitizen Kane, The Magnificent Ambersons, Othello, Macbeth, Touch of Evil, \u003c\/i\u003e and \u003ci\u003eChimes at Midnight\u003c\/i\u003e, Welles was a master storyteller, as expansive as he was enigmatic. \u003ci\u003eThis Is Orson Welles\u003c\/i\u003e, a collection of penetrating and witty conversations between Welles and Peter Bogdanovich, includes insights into Welles's radio, theater, film, and television work; Hollywood producers, directors, and stars; and almost everything else, from acting to magic, literature to comic strips, bullfighters to gangsters. Now including Welles's revealing memo to Universal about his artistic intentions for \u003ci\u003eTouch of Evil, \u003c\/i\u003e (of which the \"director's edition\" was released in Fall 1998) this book, which Welles ultimately considered his autobiography, is a masterpiece as unique and engaging as the best of his works.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eBinding Type:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Da Capo Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 03\/01\/1998\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780306808340\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 592\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.34lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.02h x 5.06w x 1.32d","brand":"Orson Welles,Peter Bogdanovich,Jonathan Rosenbaum","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":52403340935349,"sku":"9780306808340","price":26.34,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0473\/0804\/6492\/files\/img_6a989d5b-d6dc-4a9b-ae4b-83784c8d0afa.jpg?v=1774968843","url":"https:\/\/pastforward.org\/products\/this-is-orson-welles-9780306808340","provider":"Past Forward","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
