Orson Welles, Alida Valli, Joseph Cotten + A. Karas zither

[Miauriceful]

Alida didn't like Hollywood, this is the simple truth.

[Gheorgyi]

@Miauriceful Who, in his/her right senses, can? Besides, she was also a refined woman, out of old German aristocracy, and quite likely she couldn't stand American Hollywood vulgarity and garishness,

[Gheorgyi]

Alida Valli: one of the most beautiful women ever to appear on the screen; also an excellent actress. Too under- rated in international movieland: all the space is taken up by the Americans, with their invasiveness. Gheorhij

@Gheorgyi I love Alida Valli, she had a great personality and style. She is one of my favorite actress. Unforgettable! Thank you so much for your type of comment.

[8Zeitgeist]

@Gheorgyi jeez why dont you marry her.. lol :)

[Gheorgyi]

@8Zeitgeist Hallo you boor out there in Canada. "Marry her"? It'd be kind of difficult, seeing how she's been dead for 5 years, and I'm an 82-yr old widower, and I'd neither feel like, nor be up to marrying such a beauty. WHY do you give yourself a very TCHERMAN moniker, bozo? What kind of "spirit of the times" can you possibly be??!!! C'mon, do us all a favour, SCRAM - go hunt a moose, or something.

[8Zeitgeist]

@Gheorgyi us canadians dont hunt moose

we hunt snow

read a fricken book before u go assuming!

[Gheorgyi]

@8Zeitgeist A bowl of snow should have good nutritional value, sure...I guess you use "fricken" in the same sense as others use "f******g"? A book about, WHAT, Canada? Now, what the heck should I waste my time on something so trivial?

[8Zeitgeist]

@Gheorgyi oops, she died in 2006.. my bad

she has a website

[XSW1000]

u know what? i saw this film 10 times maybe -and i wish i had'nt seen it al all so i'll be able to watch it for the 1st time just for the scene when O.W comes back from the "dead" , just when the cat scratches the black pair of shoes....it gives me the thrill....

[mariadelamor21]

@XSW1000 Thank you for so original and personal comment.

[psweep]

@XSW1000 Yes correct i wish they wiped my brain of any existance of this film becuase i love it that much i want the same reaction i want when i first saw it :D fantastic film :D

[zumbaladin]

best film ever about friendship!

and Carol Reed never did another film as good as a tenth of this one

(by the way really inspired by Welles' techniques)

Very well done! ...this is my favorite film.

[mariadelamor21]

I´m sorry. I haven´t clear your comment. Can you repeat the concept with other words? My english language es very elementary. Thanks.

[boydgray]

Is it because she looks so sad and you just want to comfort her?

[bunnylover060]

My name's Alida

[Oberstfeldmeister]

Grazie, mariadelamor!

[Nanni1947]

due grandi: Alida valli e Orson Welles per un grande film troppo dimenticato;: qui in Italia non lo trasmette manco SKY..è terribile sta cosa!

[Barney83]

Very nice presentation, and Valli was so beautiful!

[mariadelamor21]

De nada. Adoro este film y su música.
