About this product

Product Information

THE LADY FROM SHANGHAI, an atmospheric film noir based on Sherwood King's novel IF I DIE BEFORE I WAKE, features Orson Welles as producer, director, co-screenwriter, and star. Welles plays rogue seaman Michael O'Hara, complete with Irish brogue. After saving beautiful Elsa Bannister (Rita Hayworth) from thieves in Central Park, O'Hara is requested to serve on the yacht owned by Elsa's husband, Arthur (Welles veteran Everett Sloane), an older man who needs special crutches in order to walk. A fiery passion lurks underneath the relationship between Michael and Elsa; in actuality, the marriage between Welles and Hayworth was ending at the time the film was shot. Enter George Grisby (the eerie-sounding Glenn Anders), one of Bannister's associates and a man with a very special offer for O'Hara, luring him into a web of lies and murder.Although Welles claimed he made THE LADY FROM SHANGHAI just to finance other projects and the film does not show off his typical Wellesian flair, it still plays like a classic noir that draws the viewer in and never lets go. The characters are complex and fascinating, and the tension runs high and hot as the truth behind all the lies starts to come out. The film is most famous for its thrilling climax, which takes place in a hall of mirrors. Welles might have considered THE LADY FROM SHANGHAI workmanlike, but this noir thriller is only as workmanlike as any Welles film can be.

    Thanks 2 This Seller 4 Delivering An Item Exactly As It Was Pictured, & Described 2 B N. I Was Concerned At 1st, When Finding The Package N My Mail Box, As I Heard It Rattle, So, Not 2 Agrivate It Any Further, I Was Very Careful Upon Opening It, As I Found That The DVD Was Loose, & Not On The Hub Within The DVD Case.

    Shipping: Shipped the day of the sale; arrived in 5 days in my city, but then the post office sent my package to Colorado. It took another 10 days to get delivered. Packaging: as expected As described: described as NEW. The books do look NEW until you at the page edges which are tanned to almost yellow. Books were probably never read, but they probably sat in sunlight for a long time. Value: Despite yellow-tan page edges, these books were a great value.

  • Film noir, an under-appreciated gem

    This film received bad reviews when it was released. The main criticism --- that all the characters are unlikable --- is accurate, but not a problem today, when interesting films don't necessarily make us feel happy. Orson Welles was definitely ahead of his time as a director, and the camerawork is on a par with the best of Alfred Hitchcock. Ironically, the only problem with this film is Welles as an actor --- and you can see it from the shot on the DVD cover. Mike (Welles) is supposed to be a young, naive sailor, overcome with passion for Rosalie (Rita Hayworth), and manipulated by the other, wealthy characters. But in the photo, Rosalie is throwing herself at Mike, and he's pushing her away as if he is bored, and about to deliver a Shakespearean monologue. In fact, Mike DOES deliver ...

  • The LADY FROM SHANGHAI.

    For some reason I expected Joseph Cotton to be in the film. Even with that disappointment it is a great display of the gifts of Orsoen Welles.
