| | 1. |  | The Trial
from Milestone Video
Price: $28.45
Customer Review:
From the grotesque miscasting of the mannered lurching permanently boyish Perkins to the sophomoric pseudo-psychologizing of the badly re-interpreted text, this is definitely the biggest mistake of Welles's career. He was OK rewriting Shakespeare & B-westerns but lordy he should have kept his... more info

| | 2. |  | Chimes At Midnight (Falstaff)
from Arthur Cantor Inc.
Customer Review:
As I recall, this was one of Orson Welles' favorites of his own films (he wrote, directed, and starred in it), and many have commented on the parallels between Welles' career and Falstaff's. At any rate, he had every reason to be proud of "Chimes," because it's a splendid movie. The film's script is... more info

from The Nostalgia Merchant (Media Home Entertainment, Inc.)
Customer Review:
Such an out-of-the-ordinary, beautifully filmed movie. For me, seeing all the filmed "stuff" happenng in and "around" the movie was more captivating than the story. WONDERFUL use of light and shadow. Appealing things to see. Was fascinated and felt that I had experienced a visual feast when the... more info

This 1942 classic was written, produced and directed by Orson Welles (who is also the narrator) and based on the 1918 novel of the same name by Booth Tarkington.
The movie chronicles the life of Isabel Amberson/Minafer (Dolores Costello) - a matriarch of an Indianapolis family dynasty - and her... more info

| | 6. |  | To Build a Fire
from Vci Video
Customer Review:
This 56-minute film is, according to the video, 'Jack London's short story, narrated by Orson Wells and filmed with complete fidelity to London's graphic narrative' and 'could be called a screen short story in its purest form.' It is certain that the film follows the original story faithfully, but... more info

| | 8. | [no image] | Citizen Kane
from RKO Radio Pictures
Customer Review:
The quality of the DVD's are really good. I studied this movie as part of a "Film" elective study and it brought back the good memories. We didn't have the benefit of the 2nd disk in those days. Really interesting for those who love the movie making industry.
