From theatre to radio to Citizen Kane to years of obscurity, Magician: The Astonishing Life & Work Of Orson Welles chronicles the history of the maverick independent film-maker, who fought against authority and was shunned after making the greatest movie of all time. Touching on all the hallmarks of Welles' career ups-and-downs, including the infamous War Of The World radio broadcast, the destruction of his second masterpiece The Magnificent Ambersons, the most famous of all cameos in The Third Man, and his triumphant film noir A Touch Of Evil, Magician is quickly-paced and bittersweet.
