Orson Welles Update

Orson Welles's unseen masterpiece set for release | Film | The Observer: "An unfinished 'masterpiece' filmed by Orson Welles nearly four decades ago is finally to reach the screen.

The Other Side of the Wind portrays the last hours of an ageing film director. Welles is said to have told John Huston, who plays the lead role: 'It's about a bastard director… full of himself, who catches people and creates and destroys them. It's about us, John.'"

Goody! Waiting with excited anticipation!

No doubt Welles would love all the uproar attending to it.

I hope this is more successful than the cinematic Xanadu Jesus Franco made of Welles' DON QUIXOTE.
