I read that in another forum years ago, but I never been able to confirm it.
Last spring, Paramount Home Entertainment reissued it on DVD after it being out of print for several years.

I would love to see The Eyes of Orson Welles on a Criterion disc along with every episode of BBC Sketch Book.

It arrived from Madrid via DHL five days after I ordered it. Hope to sit down and enjoy it over the next few days. The first CD runs a little over 41 minutes with 19 tracks and is titled The Original Album . The second disc, The Complete Film Score , clocks in at 68 minutes with 39 tracks. Packaged ...

Emmy winner Alec Baldwin and Oscar winning director William Friedkin are joining filmmaker Joshua Grossberg in the TCM-backed hunt for the lost version of Orson Welles' The Magnificent Ambersons as an executive producer and advisor, respectively. https://www.wellesnet.com/alec-baldwin-william-friedk...

For anyone interested in scores on CD, Quartet Records has just released a 2 CD set of the complete score of Falstaff, along with the original soundtrack album as put together by Angelo Lavagnino.

I questioned th...

Of course, it will sound probably stupid to the staff, as Orson Welles enthousiasts are always wanting for much more... but I suppose it will be a market att...

Just an idea about the old indiegogo TOSTW campagne. As it is now quite sure it will be impossible to send the books and dvds long time ago promised... The producers very much want to honor those perks but there have been unforeseen obstacles. I was in contact with someone at Netflix last week abou...

"The Other Side of the Wind" and "F for Fake" are both playing at the Paris Theater in NYC on May 2. There seems to have been almost no publicity for the showings. And Netflix, which runs the Paris, really needs to upgrade and update the theater's website. I thought it was odd t...

Sorry for the lack of notice: THE OTHER SIDE OF THE WIND is being shown with F FOR FAKE on Sunday, May 2, at the Netflix-operated Paris Theater in New York City. https://www.paristheaternyc.com/ (Thanks jbrooks)

Why create the fanfare around the trip if there's so little chance of anything being found? ... Otherwise, they're setting themselves up - fairly or unfairly - for, if not quite Capone's vault scorn, at least a bit of a sour taste for the documentary.

Yes, there are outlier incidents in history: the METROPOLIS footage, Gillette's HOLMES. But - those were prints of completed films, that had seen release. This likely will be more of a "Capone's Vault" event. P.S. - Unless... unless... this is a pre-planned "discovery." There is...
