Orson Welles 1915–1985 • Orson Welles, a man blessed with talent and ego in equal measure, was no stranger to controversy. That included the 1948 release of Macbeth, his own cinematic take on Shakespeare’s classic work. Welles changed the Bard’s writing and even added new dialogue—then theatrical heresy—and played Macbeth as something of a victim rather than a flawed man corrupted by ambition. And Welles, much like Macbeth and his famous Citizen Kane character, aspired to be king of his own world.
