  • hehehe dynamite found in the 'Love Nest'

    Oh Orson you so sly with your humor.

    And you are missed very much.

  • Amazing! I've seen this movie probably 20 times and never noticed that those scenes were two very long takes!

    Interestingly, they initially DID show a bit of the left side of the bedroom doorframe at 00:52, then, for the rest, the left sides of the door frames were missing. So I guess the camera was on a track going from living room to bedroom to bathroom.

see all

  • those walls didn't fly to allow for the shot, guys... i live in this building, have been here 16 years... my place is an identical apartment to the one in this scene, two floors up... i have been in that exact apartment a zillion times... those are the original 1919 walls, Welles was a master of in-camera effects and the king of the dutch angel... and the doorframe at :52 isnt' to a bedroom, but to the kitchen...

  • @GetMeThere1 removable walls, its a baisic set trick to get the camera in and out, the things the size of a go-kart by this period.

  • "You framed that boy! FRAMED HIM!"

  • "Ehhhh... I DON'T SPEAK MEXICAN."

  • the woman in the scene is the mom of Tatum o neil: she was in several alfred hitchcok presnts as well as a few movies, but perhaps her southern accent limited her roles or something. She was quite good in this, Welles knew what he was doing using her.

  • @gandhistears the best kind lol

  • Wonderful One-Take.

    Orson is The Master.

  • @gandhistears: good observation. it's part of his corrupt character...if you haven't figured that out yet.

  • such casual racism
