Searching for Orson Synopsis & Movie Info

From across the Atlantic in Croatia comes this documentary about Orson Welles’s unfinished films and big loves. Gorgeously blending lost footage from the incomplete films and interviews with those who knew him best, father and son filmmakers Dominik and Jakov Sedlar have created a poignant homage to a master artist. 'Searching for Orson' is an exploration of Welles’s genius. Everyone knows who he was: an actor, director, writer, narrator, and editor, but sometimes what is behind the curtain is far more intriguing than what stands in front of it. This film gives a look inside the public Orson Welles. -- 2006 AFI Film Festival Official Site -
