I *Heart* Week: Orson Welles
I declare it I *Heart* Week. Everyone has to start a thread full of brilliance that is a particular genius, hero or legend.
First up, Orson Welles
Here he is, at his best. Raw and uncut.

Here's the entire <a href="http://www.archive.org/details/WAROFTHEWORLDS2">War of the Worlds recording</a>, as well as <a href="http://www.archive.org/details/TheLivesOfHarryLime">The Lives of Harry Lime</a> (The prequel to The Third Man) and <a href="http://www.archive.org/details/The-Shadow">The Shadow</a> (which was turned into an appalling film with Alec Baldwin).
Speaking of which, Welles could have <a href="http://www.comicbookresources.com/columns/index.cgi?column=thecolumn">directed a Batman film</a>. Think about that. How brilliant would that have been? With George Raft as Two-Face, James Cagney as The Riddler, Basil Rathbone as The Joker, Marlene Dietrich as Catwoman, and GREGORY PECK as Bruce Wayne/Batman?
"I'm Batman. And Lord help me, I'll hit you with my ring hand".
The famous Welles frozen peas advert. And threatening the sound engineer with blowjobs.

Welles getting his hair done with Dean Martin and James Stewart. Surreal.
