| Wolf, I agree with you about "Citizen Kane". Its such a shame that the powerful tried to ruin his career after that but I guess it was dangerous taking on Randolph Hearst. His next film (as you probably know) was "The Magnificent Ambersons" and I hear that RKO waited for him to be out of the country before they edited it in a deliberate attempt to damage his reputation. I think the coolest thing he ever did was the "War Of The Worlds" radio broadcast. Did you see the second post I made? I went back and watched your film a second time and I found that there were more things I wanted to say about it. It was different the second time around. I hope you don't mind all the questions I asked. Film making is a fascinating subject. You wrote: "Its quite funny you mention HInchcock, as my next project, if all goes to plan, will feature “Live” scenes at the theatre, much like he used to do with his films." That sounds really cool. Have you seen "Rope"? You really must see it if you haven't already done so. I heard that old Alfred shot the whole thing in two takes. It was originally a stage play and that shows but it is brilliant. Your mention of live scenes at the theatre reminded me of it. | |
