Book Reviews of This is Orson Welles
Book Review: Welles' Own Book
Summary: 5 Stars
This is not an interview with Orson Welles by a brilliant director and cinephile. This is a book by Welles. As soon as Bogdanovich had the interviews typed he sent them to Welles, and he edited them. And since he was a genius of editing, he made his second Citizen Kane--or better his Citizen Welles. Only it isn't a movie, it's a book.
A wonderful book for anybody who likes cinema, radio, theatre--the media. And for all those who want to know the mind behind that masterpiece that is always in all the 10 Best Movies Ever lists: Citizen Kane. Which is not the only film discussed here: Welles tells it all, and even if it isn't all true, who cares? It's great anyway. What can you expect from the author of F for Fake?
It's like Welles himself: greater than life.
