Frances H A ver creative and fascinating look into Welles films by examining his drawings and his life/ Rated 4 out of 5 stars 01/25/24 Full Review S R A different perspective on describing Orson Welles, with a mysterious box that provided insights into the Director. It was interesting, but the voice was hypnotic and put you to sleep. Saw on HBO. Rated 2.5 out of 5 stars 12/06/23 Full Review
