this be orson welles only film in color apart from the documentary f for fake which he make in 1973. after this film he sadly do not get the change to write and direct more movie . a mentioned before he make one documentary in the seventy and shot section of the movie other side of the wind ( never finish it ) and make a bunch of commercial and star in horrible movie ( apart from catch 22 ) . so the only great thing we have from orson welles a a pioneer movie director during the last 20 year of his live ( he die in 1985 ) be chime of midnight ( 1966 ) and this film which he make in 1968 for french television . this film be short and excellent . the way orson use color celluloid be spellbind and i have never see anything like it and he use red and green color like a painter and project a certain eerie feeling seldom see in cinema . the story be a typical one by welles . a rich and powerful old man be lonesome in his mansion and only want to be love . for those of you who love cinema and this film be a must see by one of the great director of all time . base on a story by danish writer karen blixen .
