The Eyes of Orson Welles

Orson Welles was an artist before he became an actor and director. He kept drawing and painting throughout his career, making sketches of characters, storyboards, set designs, and pictures of the people and places that inspired him. These works of art are a sketchbook of his life, and most of them have never been seen by anyone outside of his family and close friends. For the first time, award-winning director Mark Cousins has been given access to this treasure trove of images so that he can make a film about what he finds there. This will be the first time that the story of Welles' visual thinking has ever been told. A unique new look at one of the most creative people of the 20th century, whose art and life continue to fascinate people today.
