Film critic Jonathan Rosenbaum has long believed that to dwell on this aspect of the Welles canon is to overlook the wealth of information available by studying the unrealized works. Discovering Orson Welles collects Rosenbaum's writings to date on Welles-some thirty-five years of them-and makes an irrefutable case for the seriousness of his work, illuminating both Welles the artist and Welles the man. The book is also a chronicle of Rosenbaum's highly personal writer's journey and his efforts to arrive at the truth. The essays, interviews, and reviews are arranged chronologically and are accompanied by commentary that updates the scholarship. Highlights include Rosenbaum's 1972 interview with Welles about his first Hollywood project, Heart of Darkness; Rosenbaum's rebuttal to Pauline Kael's famous essay "Raising Kane"; detailed essays and comprehensive discussions of Welles's major unfinished work, including two unrealized projects, The Big Brass Ring and The Cradle Will Rock; and an account of Rosenbaum's work as consultant on the 1998 re-editing of Touch of Evil, based on a studio memo by Welles. 606 $aMotion pictures$vBiography 606 $aMotion pictures$xAnalysis, appreciation 610 $aamerican director. 610 $abiographical. 610 $acareer. 610 $achimes at midnight. 610 $acinema. 610 $acreative control. 610 $acreative process. 610 $adon quixote. 610 $af for fake. 610 $afilm criticism. 610 $afilm director. 610 $afilm studies. 610 $afilms. 610 $aheart of darkness. 610 $ahollywood. 610 $ainnovation. 610 $amovie studies. 610 $amovies. 610 $aorson welles. 610 $aothello. 610 $apersonal interviews. 610 $araising kane. 610 $astudio memo. 610 $athe big brass ring. 610 $athe cradle will rock. 610 $athe ultimate auteur. 610 $atouch of evil. 610 $aunfinished films. 610 $aunfinished work. 610 $awelles canon. 615 0$aMotion pictures 615 0$aMotion pictures$xAnalysis, appreciation. 676 $a791.430233092 700 $aRosenbaum$b Jonathan$0542268 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910784421003321 996 $aDiscovering Orson Welles$92380596 997 $aUNINA
