Despite the System: Orson Welles Versus the Hollywood Studios (Hardback) (ISBN: 9781556525476) Heylin, Clinton Quantity Available: 1
Book Description: Chicago Review Press, United States, 2006. Hardback. Book Condition: New. New edition. 240 x 161 mm. Brand New Book with Free Worldwide Delivery. Revealing the facts rather than the myths behind Orson Welles's Hollywood career, this groundbreaking history fills in the gaps behind the drama of one of the most well-known American filmmakers. Exploring why Welles's films, as released, never matched his youthful masterpiece "Citizen Kane," this historical investigation delves into the enemies that hounded him, his unwaning faith in his audience, and the brilliance of his films--before they were butchered by the studios. Based on shooting scripts, schedules, internal memos, interviews, articles, lectures, and personal correspondence, this work creates a concrete picture of his struggles and successes. This heartbreaking tale brings to life the intelligent, perceptive, and passionate man who, for all his failings as a person, was utterly uncompromising in his art.
