Entries Publication Data Advisory Board Contributors ... World Civilizations The Reader's Companion to American History WELLES, ORSON , actor, writer, director. Welles was born in Kenosha, Wisconsin. Although he had little formal education, he was, fortuitously, enrolled in the Todd School for Boys in Woodstock, Illinois. There he came under the tutelage of its headmaster, Roger Hill, who introduced the young prodigy to his favorite author, Shakespeare, and encouraged his theatrical experiments. At the time of his graduation from Todd in 1931, Welles had already formulated many of the basic concepts that would inform his adult career. He then embarked on a painting tour of Ireland. While there, he made his professional debut in the Dublin Gate Theatre production of Jew Süss. Unable to parlay his Irish success into either a London or a New York engagement, Welles returned to the Todd School in 1932, where he and Hill prepared for publication a series of acting editions, The Mercury Shakespeare. The following year, Welles met Katherine Cornell and her husband, Guthrie McClintic, who invited him to join a national tour. In July 1934, during the summer hiatus, Welles appeared in and directed his first film, a silent one-reeler, Hearts of Age.

Entries Publication Data Dedication Advisory Board ... World Civilizations The Great American History Fact-Finder Welles, Orson (George; ), actor, director, and writer. In a career that spanned nearly fifty years, Welles achieved his greatest fame for two controversial projects. The first, the 1938 radio adaptation of H. G. Wells's War of the Worlds on Halloween night, panicked many listeners, who had not heard the opening announcement that it was a play and thought they were hearing a news report that the United States had been invaded by Martians. The second was his first film — his masterpiece, Citizen Kane , which he wrote, directed, and starred in. Inspired by the life of newspaper publisher William Randolph Hearst , the film won Academy Awards but led to legal battles with Hearst, who wanted it suppressed. Welles strongly influenced the art of film with his innovative camera, sound, and editing techniques.

Oct. 10, 1985, Los Angeles), American motion-picture actor, director, producer, and writer. His innovative narrative techniques and use of photography, dramatic lighting, and music to further the dramatic line and to create mood combined to make his Citizen Kane (1941)which he wrote, directed, produced, and acted inone of the most influential films in the history of the art. From his progressive mother (a pianist and crack shot with a rifle), Welles learned to play the piano and the violin. His parents separated when he was six years old, and his mother died when he was eight. Through his father, a successful inventor and manufacturer, who died when his son was 13, Welles met actors and sportsmen. By the time he was 11, Welles had twice traveled around the world. He attended the Todd School for Boys in Woodstock, Ill., where he was an indifferent student but learned much about dramatics. He studied briefly at the Art Institute of Chicago and worked as a reporter before going to Ireland, where he made a sketching tour by donkey cart. His acting debut was made at the Gate Theatre, Dublin, in the autumn of 1931, where he acted in Hamlet . Welles remained in Ireland for a year, acting with the Abbey Players as well as at the Gate. After a tour of Spain and Morocco, he returned to Chicago and then toured with Katharine Cornell's company in 1933-34, playing Mercutio in

HALL The next time you watch the beginning of Psycho Orson Welles Touch of Evil , made in 1958, just two years before Psycho . That shot, which travels several hundred yards across much of a town as we wait for the ticking bomb to explode, is so audacious that even today films like The Player explicitly refer to it. Was Hitchcock, in the opening of Psycho , trying to one-up Welles' experiment with the limits of the dolly shot? Yes, without even a shadow of a doubt. In the prepublicity for Psycho , Hitchcock proclaimed that his film would open with the longest "dolly" shot, approximately four miles, ever attempted by helicopter. Hitchcock was out to prove he could beat Welles' technical feat in distance if not in time. While the final result — with obvious dissolves between separate shots — was not quite up to his original ambition, Hitchcock's opening clearly displays the influence of Welles.

La Guerra de los Mundos El Exorcista Poltergeist Dracula- Versión española ... El Resplandor LA GUERRA DE LOS MUNDOS, 1938 y 1953 En 1953, el público que abarrotaba las salas de todos los cines del país estaba siendo sutilmente manipulado. Creían que en realidad estaban presenciando un ataque de Marte cuando, en realidad, estaban viendo "La Guerra de los Mundos", una de las pocas películas de ciencia ficción que muestra una invasión masiva de marcianos. Aunque el público no tenía nada de ingenuo, estaba pegado en sus asientos devorando las imágenes y viviendo el momento con la intensa emoción de quien vive una experiencia real. Quince años antes, durante la noche de Halloween de 1938, Orson Welles ya había provocado una histeria colectiva con un famoso y criticado programa de radio basado en el libro de H.G. Welles. Ese programa fue precisamente el que le inspiró para hacer la película. De hecho, dentro del género de terror, no hay una película en la historia americana comparable a la de Welles, quien, además, logró llevar la historia más allá de las ondas radiofónicas pues los ciudadanos estadounidenses pensaron verdaderamente que estaban siendo invadidos por marcianos. Orson Welles, aunque sea casi siempre recordado por su obra maestra cinematográfica "Citizen Kane", dijo alguna vez que el verdadero género cinematográfico con el que el mismo se identificaba era el de terror.
