This fascinating collection provides a fitting tribute to one of the true giants of the silver screen. Orson Welles' classic 1941 feature Citizen Kane is widely regarded as the greatest American film of all time, while his 1958 film Touch Of Evil is often to referred to as the greatest B-movie ever made.

But in and around such classics, Welles starred in or directed a number of films that showed off his astonishing range and versatility and included works based on such diverse sources as Franz Kafka, William Shakespeare, and the Bible. This five-DVD set contains some of Welles' equally brilliant but less widely known work.

Included are The Stranger (1946), King Lear (1953), David And Goliath (1960) and The Trial (1962). Plus, there's an ultra-rare live TV appearance by Welles on a 1956 Herb Shriner Show in which he recites poetry. Finally, two documentaries - Hollywood Remembers Orson Welles and Hollywood Couples: Orson Welles And Rita Hayworth - provide a further insight into the complex life and character of this extraordinary man. No fan of classic cinema should be without this important collection from The Master.
