Brunnen

Just received and watched “Brunnen”, a documentary on Welles’s years in Spain by Swedish filmaker Kristian Petri, and featuring interviews with Oja Kodar, director Jess Franco, author Peter Viertel ( screenwriter of several famous films and author of many books, the most famous of which is “White Hunter, Black Heart”) and several “unfamous” individuals who came into contact with Welles in everyday life; the film is slow, leisurely, philosophical and poetic, and makes a nice companion piece to “Rosabella”, the documentary which covers Welles’s time in Italy. Brunnen features a gorgeous narration in English by the director, and should you purchase it, will arrive at your door in just a few days: here’s the web-site where you can order it:
