<P0-S0> Eli Sanders is an American journalist based in Seattle, Washington and the Associate Editor of The Stranger. <P0-S1> In 2012, Sanders won the Pulitzer Prize in Feature Writing. <P0-S2> Sanders hosts a weekly political podcast for The Stranger, the Blabbermouth Podcast. <P0-S3> On September 19, 2017, Sanders announced that he would take a temporary leave from" The Stranger" and work as the deputy communications director to Mayor Tim Burgess until November. <P0-S4> Sanders will return to" The Stranger" to write about his experiences as part of the mayoral transition. <SEP> <P1-S0> 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". <P1-S1> 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. <P1-S2> Although some contemporary sources say these reports of panic were mostly false and overstated, they rocketed Welles to notoriety. <P1-S3> 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. <P1-S4> Many of his films were either heavily edited or remained unreleased. <P1-S5> With a development spanning almost 50 years, Welles's final film," The Other Side of the Wind", was released in 2018. <P1-S6> 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. <P1-S7> He has been praised as" the ultimate auteur". <P1-S8> 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. <P1-S9> Welles had three marriages, including one with Rita Hayworth, and three children. <P1-S10> Known for his baritone voice, Welles performed extensively across theatre, radio and film. <P1-S11> He was a lifelong magician noted for presenting troop variety shows in the war years. <P1-S12> He was also included in the list of the 50 greatest Hollywood actors of all time by The Telegraph UK. <SEP> <P2-S0> Black Eyes is a 1939 British drama film directed by Herbert Brenon and starring Otto Kruger, Mary Maguire and Walter Rilla. <SEP> <P3-S0> Herbert Brenon( 13 January 1880 – 21 June 1958) born Alexander Herbert Reginald St. John Brenon was an Irish film director, actor and screenwriter during the era of silent movies through the 1930s. <SEP> <P4-S0> The Stranger is a series of direct- to- video( and audio CD) science- fiction dramas produced by BBV and starring Colin Baker. <P4-S1> They are now available on DVD. <P4-S2> The series began in 1991 with" Summoned by Shadows", co-produced with the BBC Film Club as a knowing homage to the long- running British science fiction television series" Doctor Who"( of which BBV founder Bill Baggs was a fan) and in a pragmatic attempt to take advantage of the consequent pre-existing audience. <P4-S3> " Summoned by Shadows" is a" Who"- style tale of strange doings in an unspecified time period on Earth featuring three actors known for their roles in" Doctor Who" and playing similar characters. <P4-S4> The unnamed protagonist( listed in the credits as" The Stranger") is played by Colin Baker, his assistant Miss Brown by Nicola Bryant, who had played the Doctor's assistant Peri Brown opposite Colin Baker for two years, and the villain of the piece by Michael Wisher, who had been the first actor to play Davros. <P4-S5> The second story," More than a Messiah", adapted the" Doctor Who" Audio Visuals story of the same name, but with the Stranger and Miss Brown substituted for the Doctor and companion Ria( who was modelled after Peri). <P4-S6> In a further connection, it co-starred Sophie Aldred, better known as Ace from" Doctor Who", and Peter Miles, who had co-starred( opposite Wisher) in the TV serial" Genesis of the Daleks" – both in completely different roles. <P4-S7> " In Memory Alone", the third film, found the Stranger and Miss Brown stranded without their mysterious transport( never seen) in a desolate train station with amnesia, and battling a robot and a mysterious man played by Nicholas Briggs( who also wrote the film along with others in the" Stranger" series). <P4-S8> Most releases of this film( including VHS) include a behind- the- scenes featurette and a blooper reel. <P4-S9> While the first three may be( and often were) taken as" Doctor Who" by another name, the departure of the Miss Brown character( for which Nicola Bryant does not speak with Peri Brown's American accent) and the Stranger himself being likewise" returned to his proper time and place" at the story's conclusion allowed for a move to clarify" The Stranger"'s status as separate work of fiction and developed an identity of its own. <P4-S10> The adventures of the Stranger ran in all to six videos( and four audio dramas, although the second audio drama was much the same as the sixth video). <SEP> <P5-S0> It is Welles's third completed feature film as director and his first film noir, about a war crimes investigator tracking a high- ranking Nazi fugitive to a Connecticut town. <P5-S1> It is the first Hollywood film to present documentary footage of the Holocaust. <P5-S2> The Stranger is a 1946 American film noir starring Edward G. Robinson, Loretta Young, and Orson Welles. <P5-S3> The original story by Victor Trivas was nominated for an Academy Award. <P5-S4> The film entered the public domain when its copyright was not renewed.
