Book Description
A “personal and passionate” account of the Citizen Kane director’s years as an expatriate and self-funded filmmaker (Los Angeles Times). At twenty-five, Orson Welles directed, co-wrote, and starred in Citizen Kane, widely considered the best film ever made. But Welles was such a revolutionary filmmaker that he found himself at odds with the Hollywood studio system, and his work was so far ahead of its time that he never regained the popular following he once enjoyed. Frustrated by Hollywood and falling victim to the postwar blacklist, Welles left for a long European exile. But he kept making films, functioning with the creative freedom of an independent filmmaker before that term became common and eventually preserving his independence by funding virtually all his own projects. Because he worked defiantly outside the system, Welles has often been maligned as an errant genius who squandered his early promise. Film critic Joseph McBride, who acted in Welles’s unfinished film The Other Side of the Wind, challenges conventional wisdom about Welles’s supposed creative decline in this first comprehensive examination of the films of Welles’s artistically rich yet little-known later period. During the 1970s and ’80s, Welles was breaking new aesthetic ground, experimenting as adventurously as he had throughout his career. McBride’s friendship and collaboration with Welles and his interviews with those who knew and worked with him make What Ever Happened to Orson Welles? a portrait of rare intimacy and insight. Reassessing Welles’s final period in the context of his entire life and work, this revealing portrait of this great film artist will change the terms of how Orson Welles is regarded. “[An] anecdote-illuminated account of Welles’s later years.” —The Washington Post “Joseph McBride. . .has a clearer understanding of Welles and his films than almost anyone.” —Martin Scorsese “A definitive study.” —Milwaukee Journal Sentinel

For as long as she can remember, Sabine has lived two lives. Every 24 hours she Shifts to her 'other' life - a life where she is exactly the same, but absolutely everything else is different: different family, different friends, different social expectations. In one life she has a sister, in the other she does not. In one life she's a straight-A student with the perfect boyfriend, in the other she's considered a reckless delinquent. Nothing about her situation has ever changed, until the day when she discovers a glitch: the arm she breaks in one life is perfectly fine in the other. With this new knowledge, Sabine begins a series of increasingly risky experiments that bring her dangerously close to the life she's always wanted. But if she can only have one life, which is the one she'll choose?
