At just twenty-five years old, he cowrote, produced, directed, and starred in his Academy Award-winning debut film Citizen Kane (1941). His innovative and distinctive directorial style-nonlinear narratives, unusual camera angles, deep focus shots, and long takes-continues to be emulated by directors and cinematographers to this day. The brilliant yet provocative Welles won multiple Grammys, a Golden Globe, and the greatest honor the Directors Guild of America bestowed: the D. W. Griffith Award. His final film, The Other Side of the Wind, was released in 2018, 33 years after his death. In Citizen Welles: A Biography of Orson Welles, author Frank Brady presents a comprehensive and complete picture of the artist and auteur. Painstakingly researched, Brady delves into Welles's creative achievements, from his critically acclaimed film Citizen Kane and controversial radio broadcast "The War of the Worlds" (1938) to his starring turn on Broadway in Shaw's Heartbreak House (for which he made the cover of Time). Brady also explores other notable films, including The Magnificent Ambersons (1942), Touch of Evil (1958), and Chimes at Midnight (1965). This all-encompassing work also details the personal side of Welles's life, including his romances with Rita Hayworth and Dolores Del Rio and the confounding tragedy of his final years. Presented is a captivating and compelling encapsulation of the revered and respected artist."--Amazon.com. 600 10 $a Welles, Orson, $d 1915-1985 $1 https://isni.org/isni/0000000120968527 650 0 $a Motion picture producers and directors $z United States $v Biography. 650 0 $a Actors $z United States $v Biography. 600 17 $a Welles, Orson, $d 1915-1985. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00031295 650 7 $a Actors. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00796296 650 7 $a Motion picture producers and directors. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01027225 651 7 $a United States. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01204155 655 7 $a Biographies. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01919896 830 0 $a Screen classics (Lexington, Ky.) 941 $a 4 952 $l GZPE631 $d 20240305022149.0 952 $l XXPH787 $d 20231005013429.0 952 $l TCPG826 $d 20230706010432.0 952 $l CAPH522 $d 20230701010041.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=F05BE9C40B4111EEB112B7654DECA4DB 994 $a C0 $b IW3Initiate Another SILO Locator Search
