One-Man Band by Simon Callow

- A New York Times Book Review Editors' Choice -

The third volume of Simon Callow's acclaimed Orson Welles biography, covering the period of his exile from America (1947-1964), when he produced some of his greatest works, including Touch of Evil

The acclaimed British actor Simon Callow again dives in extensive and profound detail into one of the most complicated and contradictory artists of the twentieth century, whose great accomplishments (and occasional stunning failures) in film, radio, theater, and television introduces One-Man Band, the third volume in his epic and all-encompassing four-volume overview of Orson Welles' life and career.

By 1964, he had filmed Othello, which took three years to finish; MrArkadin, the most perplexing film in his output; and Touch of Evil, a masterwork in another genre.
