Episode description
Borges called CITIZEN KANE a "labyrinth with no center" but it was the center of the labyrinth that was Orson Welles, and our final destination in the second half of this tour of the magician's career, after we pass through TOUCH OF EVIL (1958), THE TRIAL (1962), THE IMMORTAL STORY (1968), F FOR FAKE (1975), and THE OTHER SIDE OF THE WIND (2018)... and realize that in his flaws, if not his greatness, Orson Welles was a lot like us.
