New DVD: Orson Welles’s F for Fake
July 6, 2011
We recently added Orson Welles’s F for Fake to the DBRL collection. The 1974 film was Orson Welles’s final finished film as a director before he died, and it currently has a rating of 88% from critics and audiences at Rotten Tomatoes. Here’s a synopsis from our catalog:
Trickery. Deceit. Magic. In this free-form documentary, the legendary filmmaker gleefully engages the central preoccupation of his career – the tenuous line between truth and illusion, art and lies.
Check out the original 9 minute film trailer for more info. The film that the library purchased is the Criterion version of the film, which includes a double-disc set with lots of extra features.
