Does anyone happen to know if there's any footage of Welles' adaptation of Julius Caesar?

It is irresponsible for a poster to put up a post accusing someone of racism, and yet will not define why. Mr. Welles was a lot of things, but a racist was not one of them.

Cirrus lack of explanation or refusal to explain has led me to remove his statement

I'm reading that atm, reading this book makes me want to grab Callow by the throat and shake him violently while shouting "sometimes a cigar is just a cigar!" His sexual reinterpretation of every single thing Welles says, does, people he meets, etc says more about Simon Callow than it does Orson Welles
I much prefer " ... ( 3 months ago by digitalshark)
I much prefer "Rosebud," if you read it, there thankfully isn't much reason to read Callow and you can be spared his over zealous need to insert his own interpretations...

isn't that the David Thomson one?
Yes. I highly ... ( 3 months ago by digitalshark)
Yes. I highly recommend it. The most absorbing, and in my opinion, the most illuminating book ever written about Welles. Callow's books are admirable for the amount of researched detail, but that is negated by his need to, as you said, color things with his own (in my opinion, wrong) interpretations.
doesn't Thomson ... ( 3 months ago by KentAllard)
doesn't Thomson take the "Welles couldn't finish work" view?
I think that would ... ( 3 months ago by digitalshark)
I think that would be an unfair simplification. For example, he makes the point that with "The Magnificent Ambersons," Welles allowed his film to be destroyed in a way, by not remaining to supervise the editing or returning at any point from his "It's All True" shooting to address the crisis as it unfolded. I think it's fairly clear that the "he couldn't finish" aspect had more to do with his ever dwindling limited funds and resources and his contempt for the "money men." He needed a Houseman.
That is absurd, ... ( 3 months ago by KentAllard)
That is absurd, between busy filming Its All True and the war time restructions (prevented Robert Wise from joing Welles in Brazil) how on earth was he supposed to go to hollywood to check on the film!?
Well, seems like ... ( 3 months ago by digitalshark)
Well, seems like you already have your mind made up on this issue. My opinion, as I'm sure yours is, is based on having studied and read everything I could about Welles over the last 20 years. If you're expecting me to now debate you over the validity of this observation, I'm afraid I'd rather retract my recommendation and leave you to wallow through Callow. Later.

And I suppose John Huston could have taken some off from filming the Battle of San Pietro too?
I cannot abide ... ( 3 months ago by KentAllard)
I cannot abide critical assessment of anyone when it concerns events beyond their control. 1)war restrictions prevented Wise being sent down to Brazil to work on editing of Ambersons2)RKO renegged on the rest of that agreement anyway3)In the middle of a difficult shoot & with those restrictions pleas explain how Welles could have come back to check on Ambersons4)RKO rejected the favourable second screening of Ambersons & instead continued to focus on the disasterous first screening
