From sister Lila
By John Schedler
One of the great things about movies as either art or entertainment is
that they are accessible to everyone regardless of a person’s social
standing or income.
Rightly described by any as "the liveliest art" people can, and do
debate the merits of their favourite movies sometimes with a passion
usually reserved for much weightier matters. One of the most discussed
and important filmmakers of this century is Orson Welles whose "Citizen
Kane" (1941) has been chosen by many critics and film fans as the
greatest movie of all time.
But, from the very beginning of his film career Welles' artistic genius
was no match for the Hollywood wolves who resented this boy wonder
from New York. Another stumbling'block. to Welles' future career was
newspaper tycoon William Randolph Hearst whose private and public
life was the subject of "Citizen Kane". Hearst newspapers refused
advertising for the film and Hearst himself almost succeeded in having
RKO withdraw and destroy the movie. In the final analysis, even though
"Citizen Kane" was a critical success it was a flop at the box office which
is the biggest sin in the movie business and it set the stage for Welles' fall
from grace in Hollywood.
The stories of Welles^ career and films are now legendary, from the
mutilated masterpiece "The Magnificent Ambersons" to "The Third
Man", "The Stranger", "Touch Of Evil", "Macbeth", "Othello", "The
Lady From Shanghai" and many more.
Of the five incomplete features he left to posterity the most fascinating
is "It's All True" (1943) **** (Paramount), a partially reconstructed
version of a film Welles was sent to Brazil to make as a good will
gesture. The trip was unfortunately a disaster as the Brazilian
government's attitude cooled to the film and worst of all, RKO changed
management and pulled the plug. Welles spent the next four years in a
fruitless search for financing to finish the movie. Much of the footage
that Welles shot was presumed lost until a few years ago when numerous
reels of negatives were discovered in the Paramount vaults. While,
despite this discovery, we still don't have a complete film, what docs
survive has been pieced together by a team of knowledgeable film
scholars including Richard Wilson one of the production's original crew
members. Framed as a documentary, "It's All True" is a fascinating look
at a great artist and a lost masterpiece. Highly Recommended.
(Rated G).
Other new releases on store shelves this week include "Beethoven's
2nd" **1/2 (MCA/Universal - $26.95) an O.K. family comedy starring
Charles Grodin and a house full of St. Bernard puppies. (Rated PG).
Paul Hogan is back in "Lightning Jack" **1/2 (HBO) an aimiable if
somewhat slow moving western comedy about a bumbling bank robber
and his mute partner (Cuba Gooding Jr.). (Rated PG-13).
Richard Gere stars in "Intersection" ** (Paramount), a dull and lifeless
drama about a successful architect who must choose between his wife
(Sharon Stone) and his mistrpss (Lolita Davidovich). YAWN.'!
(Rated R).
"The Ref' * (Touchstone) has a funny premise about a thief who
takes a bickering couple hostage and is driven crazy by them and their
nasty relatives. Unfortunately humour gives way some of the most foul
and unnecessarily bad language 1 have heard in a movie since
"Cliffhanger". Truly Awful! (Rated R).
