Borderlines Film Festival 

Me & Orson Welles (12A)

Director: Richard Linklater
Starring: Christian McKay, Claire Danes, Zac Efron, Eddie Marsan
USA, 2009, 1 hour 54 minutes

This warm, exhilarating and truthful portrait of maverick genius Orson Welles features a hugely enjoyable central performance by Christian McKay, physically and vocally convincing with the right mix of extreme self-confidence and a dash of vulnerability. Richard, a schoolboy wannabe-actor stumbles into the theatre where Welles is pulling together a chaotic production of Caesar and lands a small part. Opening night and potential disaster looms but Richard is swept up in the Welles whirlwind, learning lessons in life, love and how to fake it from the master.
