I haven’t had a lot of time to sit down and watch a whole film lately so this weekend I’m making time and having a Orson Welles (mini) movie marathon. I’ve been wanting to re-watch The Third Man for a while so I decided I may as well check out some of the other Orson Welles films my library has to offer.
Here’s what I’m planning on watching this weekend:
The Third Man (1949): Linds wrote a post a while back about this film’s amazing cinematography.
The Stranger (1946): Welles’ first box office success co-starring Loretta Young and Edward G. Robinson.
Touch of Evil (1958): It’s probably a classic film fan crime that I haven’t seen this film yet. Written, directed, and co-starring Orson Welles.
Compulsion (1959): Based on the trial of Leopold and Loeb, Welles plays the murderers’ attorney.
Anyone else have film watching plans of their own for the weekend?
