Director: Mark Cousins
Synopsis: Granted exclusive access to hun-
dreds of private drawings and paintings by
Orson Welles, filmmaker Mark Cousins dives
deep into the visual world of this legendary
director and actor, to reveal a portrait of the
artist as he’s never been seen before —
through his own eyes, sketched with his own
hand, painted with his own brush. Executive
produced by Michael Moore, The Eyes of Orson
Welles brings vividly to life the passions, politics
and power of this 20th-century showman, and
explores how the genius of Welles still reso-
nates today in the age of Trump, more than 30
years after his death.
