Orson Welles
George Orson Welles( May 6, 1915 – October 10, 1985) was an American actor, director, writer and producer who is remembered for his innovative work in radio, theatre and film.
He is considered one of the greatest film directors of all time.
While in his twenties Welles directed a number of high- profile stage productions for the Federal Theatre Project, including an adaptation of" Macbeth" with an entirely African American cast and the political musical" The Cradle Will Rock".
In 1937 he and John Houseman founded the Mercury Theatre, an independent repertory theatre company that presented a series of productions on Broadway through 1941, including" Caesar"( 1937), a Broadway adaptation of William Shakespeare's" Julius Caesar".
In 1938, his radio anthology series" The Mercury Theatre on the Air" gave Welles the platform to find international fame as the director and narrator of a radio adaptation of H. G. Wells's novel" The War of the Worlds", which caused widespread panic because many listeners thought that an invasion by extraterrestrial beings was actually occurring.
Although some contemporary sources say these reports of panic were mostly false and overstated, they rocketed Welles to notoriety.
His first film was" Citizen Kane"( 1941), which is consistently ranked as one of the greatest films ever made, which he co-wrote, produced, directed and starred in as Charles Foster Kane.
Welles released twelve other features, the most acclaimed of which include" The Magnificent Ambersons"( 1942)," The Lady from Shanghai"( 1947)," Touch of Evil"( 1958)," The Trial"( 1962)," Chimes at Midnight"( 1966) and" F for Fake"( 1973).
Welles was an outsider to the studio system, and struggled for creative control on his projects early on with the major film studios in Hollywood and later in life with a variety of independent financiers across Europe, where he spent most of his career.
Many of his films were either heavily edited or remained unreleased.
Some, like" Touch of Evil", have been painstakingly re-edited from his notes.
With a development spanning almost 50 years, Welles's final film," The Other Side of the Wind", was released in 2018.
His distinctive directorial style featured layered and nonlinear narrative forms, uses of lighting such as chiaroscuro, unusual camera angles, sound techniques borrowed from radio, deep focus shots and long takes.
He has been praised as" the ultimate auteur".
Welles had three marriages, including one with Rita Hayworth, and three children.
Known for his baritone voice, Welles performed extensively across theatre, radio and film.
He was a lifelong magician noted for presenting troop variety shows in the war years.
In 2002 he was voted the greatest film director of all time in two British Film Institute polls among directors and critics.
He was also included in the list of the 50 greatest Hollywood actors of all time by The Telegraph UK.

Chimes at Midnight
Chimes at Midnight( onscreen title and UK title: Falstaff( Chimes at Midnight), Spanish release: Campanadas a medianoche), is a 1965 English- language Spanish- Swiss period comedy- drama film directed by and starring Orson Welles.
The film's plot centres on William Shakespeare's recurring character Sir John Falstaff and the father- son relationship he has with Prince Hal, who must choose between loyalty to his father, King Henry IV, or Falstaff.
Welles said that the core of the film's story was" the betrayal of friendship."
It stars Welles as Falstaff, Keith Baxter as Prince Hal, John Gielgud as Henry IV, Jeanne Moreau as Doll Tearsheet and Margaret Rutherford as Mistress Quickly.
The script contains text from five of Shakespeare's plays; primarily" Henry IV, Part 1" and" Henry IV, Part 2", but also" Richard IIHenry V", and" The Merry Wives of Windsor".
Ralph Richardson's narration is taken from the works of chronicler Raphael Holinshed.
Welles had previously produced a Broadway stage adaptation of nine Shakespeare plays called" Five Kings" in 1939.
In 1960, he revived this project in Ireland as" Chimes at Midnight", which was his final on- stage performance.
Neither of these plays was successful, but Welles considered portraying Falstaff to be his life's ambition and turned the project into a film.
In order to get initial financing, Welles lied to producer Emiliano Piedra about intending to make a version of" Treasure Island", and keeping the film funded during its production was a constant struggle.
Welles shot" Chimes at Midnight" throughout Spain between 1964 and 1965; it premiered at the 1966 Cannes Film Festival, winning two awards there.
Initially dismissed by most film critics," Chimes at Midnight" is now regarded as one of Welles' highest achievements, and Welles himself called it his best work.
Welles felt a strong connection to the character of Falstaff and called him" Shakespeare's greatest creation".
Some film scholars and Welles' collaborators have made comparisons between Falstaff and Welles, while others see a resemblance between Falstaff and Welles' father.
Disputes over the ownership of" Chimes at Midnight" made it difficult to view the film legally until recently.
It was released in the UK on DVD and Blu-ray in 2015.
A new restoration by Janus Films and The Criterion Collection was screened at the Film Forum in New York January 1–12, 2016.
The Criterion Collection released the film on Blu-ray and DVD on August 30, 2016.
