The Trial
Was it Welles best film? No, but it is one of his most underrated in my book.

Q. A critic who admires your work very much said that, in The Trial, you were repeating yourself…
Welles: Exactly, I repeated myself. I believe we do it all the time. We always take up certain elements again. How can it be avoided? An actor’s voice always has the same timbre and, consequently, he repeats himself. It is the same for a singer, a painter…There are always certain things that come back, for they are part of one’s personality, of one’s style. If these things didn’t come into play, a personality would be so complex that it would become impossible to identify it.
It is not my intention to repeat myself, but in my work there should certainly be references to what I have done in the past. Say what you will, but The Trial is the best film I ever made…I have never been so happy as when I made this film.”

Rita Hayworth, Marlene Dietrich and Orson Welles
Not to be indecent, but Orson is totally trying to get something to happen here.

I hope everyone is enjoying the holidays so far. It has been a great year for myself and Letter to Jane and I want to thank you with sharing my last copy of Cahiers du Cinema in English I have left. What is so special about this issue you might ask? The issue is dedicated to Orson Wells, including an in-depth interview with the legend, nuff said.
