Friday, Feb. 1, 8:00 PMStarring Orson Welles, Joseph Cotton, Everett Sloan, Dorothy Comingore. Directed by Orson Welles. (1941, 119mins. Pre-dates rating system, but is suitable for most audiences.) The fascinating - and for William Randolph Hearst, enraging - character study of the rise, successes and failings of a powerful, egotistical publishing figure. Welles shattered many film-making rules, and created some new ones. Extraordinary cinematography by Gregg Toland, great score by Bernard Herrmann and Oscar-winning screenplay by Welles and Herman J. Mankiewicz.
