I watched The Other Side of the Wind last night.
This is a film that took Orson Welles six years to shoot and he never completed editing. The final composition was taken up by Welle's friends long after he died, using his production notes and footage to piece together Welle's swan song. It is apparently a semi-autobiographical tale about an aging film director lost in a world of sycophants and parties. There is a film being shot within the film that is mostly a beautiful young woman doing things naked. I found The Other Side of the Wind an apt title as it felt like I was standing on the other side of a fart while I watched it i.e. watching this film made me feel like Orson Welles farted on me.

It’s on my to watch list. I’ve seen the documentary about it twice. The doc is a little misleading it, casting it as his last unfinished masterpiece, when in reality he left behind a lot of unfinished films.
The sex scene in the car looks wild.

I’ve heard that Orson Welles liked to do a little gag which he called “busting ass.” What busting ass is, or rather, to bust ass on someone means you stuff your hand between your butt cheeks and leave it there for a while then you use that hand to shake hands with someone you hate without them knowing where it’s been.
The man was a genius in every way.

The man was a genius in every way. This sounds a bit anally labour-intensive for such a fleeting payoff. You may not actually still be present in your marks company when they revolting payoff reaches it's grisly fruition. You would have to rely on the imagination to envision the mark cringing in confusion as they sniff and sniff again. "What the devil is that stink?" they murmur to no one. Still, I suppose it is reflective of the patient attention to detail and singular focus that Welles brought to his oeuvre (yes I used that word shut up) ps, no I dont believe it for a second. I wasnt born yesterday. I was born 14 years ago. |

I dunno, I may have read it in his biography. Or maybe talked about it during a Dick Cavett interview. Can’t recall. But 100% real.
