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.

The Other Side of the Wind
The Other Side of the Wind is an American experimental film directed, co-written, co-produced and co-edited by Orson Welles, released in 2018 after more than forty years in development.
It stars John Huston, Bob Random, Peter Bogdanovich, Susan Strasberg and Oja Kodar.
Shooting began in 1970 in what Welles intended to be his Hollywood comeback, and resumed on- and- off until 1976.
Welles continued to intermittently work on the project into the 1980s, but it became embroiled in legal, financial, and political complications which prevented it from being completed.
Welles utilized a film- within- a-film narrative which follows the last day in the life of an aging Hollywood film director( Huston) as he hosts a screening party for his unfinished latest project.
The film was shot in an unconventional mockumentary style featuring a rapid cutting approach with both color and black- and- white footage.
It was intended as a satire of both the passing of Classic Hollywood and of the avant- garde filmmakers of Europe and New Hollywood in the 1970s.
The unreleased results would be called" the Holy Grail of cinema."
Following Welles' death in 1985, several attempts were made at reconstructing the unfinished film.
In 2014, the rights were acquired by Royal Road and the project was overseen by Bogdanovich and producer Frank Marshall.
The film eventually had its world premiere at the 75th Venice International Film Festival on August 31, 2018, and was released on November 2, 2018, by Netflix to critical praise, accompanied by the documentary" They'll Love Me When I'm Dead"( 2018).
