The Big O
Article Abstract:
Filmmaker and actor Orson Welles revolutionized both the American cinema and the theater by the time he was 30 years old. Tim Robbin's epic "Cradle Will Rock" is about Welle's 1937 stage sensation. HBO's movie "RKO 281" is about the making of "Citizen Kane." Welles thought that a movie studio was a great toy, like a big electric train.
