@JimHallowes Quick question: How much had he been drinking before the other footage was filmed? Was everyone just too afraid to ask him to stop?
-
That was absolute pure magic to turn the outtake reel into something usable, even with the dub. They should do one now with the guy who voiced him on The Critic dubbing the voice.
-
@JimHallowes Wow, I can see the dubbing and the red eyes.
-
I've been looking for how it was SUPPOSED to look forever! Nice.
-
This ad is incredible in comparison to the raw footage.

Sir John Gielgud replaced Welles as the spokesman for Pual Mason when he died in 1985.

@JimHallowes There is some noticeable splicing at the 10 second mark, in between the words "champagne" and "by". But it is very impressive that you were able to turn the raw footage into a usable commercial.
Did they do a lot of takes, or just the three?
Personally, I find these behind the scenes looks at Mr. Welles to be fascinating- even if it had worked perfectly, I'd still be interested to see what he was like in between takes.

A true genius, Orson Welles!

Johnny Carson did an equally famous parody of this ad on "THE TONIGHT SHOW":
CARSON (as "Welles"): We will sell no wine....before its time.
CARSON (as a "wino"): [groaning] IT'S TIME!!!!

Actually we went back into the recording studio with Orson a week later and re-recorded his dialog and edited it in to the best footage we had from that day's shoot... we didn't do another day of shooting. We did as the post below says we "salvaged" a commercial and the client claimed they could still see his red eyes in the final edited and aired spot.
