Kane and Chimes at Traverse City Film Festival, July 2016

Postby Wellesnet » Fri Jul 29, 2016 7:50 am

Beatrice Welles appeared at the Michael Moore-founded film festival in Traverse, MI this past week, introducing "Citizen Kane" and "Chimes at Midnight".
A tweet from someone in attendance.
>>Beatrice Welles yesterday said that Donald Trump compared himself to Citizen Kane + admired her dad Orson "because of his taste in skirt"

Going to the fest also inspired this letter to Orson, by Mark Cousins:

Robert Kroll filed this report on Traverse: http://www.wellesnet.com/beatrice-welles-hosts-chimes-at-midnight-citizen-kane-at-2016-traverse-city-film-festival/

Beatrice Welles was joined Michael Moore for the screening of KANE. Philip Hallman of the University of Michigan joined her for the CHIMES screening.
KANE drew 500 people for a Wednesday noontime showing. Extras chairs were needed for the crowd at the Thursday afternoon screening of CHIMES.
