Welles

Welles

Hollywood never offered Welles greater opportunities after the Citizen Kane (1940) scandal. Though Welles paid a huge price for his radicalism and genius, he attained a perfect and satisfying balance between his stylistic approaches and narratives in all of his films. Hollywood skepticism accused Welles of being an untrustworthy director in terms of spending huge budgets to make his films, but his approach to his films in a constructive spirit is undeniable. The collapse of politics of auteur especially in the second half of Welles's life created a shadow and the darker side that its fingerprint remained on his career for the rest of his life.
