About this product
Product Information
A dying man's final words send two people to Gregory Arkadin (Orson Welles), a mysterious and much-feared billionaire who lives on a Xanadu-like castle. In Welles's noirish MR. ARKADIN, Robert Arden stars as Guy Van Stratten, an adventurer and fortune hunter who is interested in Arkadin's money--and his daughter, Raina (Paolo Mori). Arkadin, overprotective of his daughter, has his "secretaries" prepare a damaging dossier on Van Stratten--entitled "Confidential Report." But Arkadin then makes a deal with Van Stratten--he will pay the young man for preparing a similar file on him, for Mr. Arkadin says he remembers nothing about his past and does not know where he came from. Even his name is a mystery. Van Stratten's search for the truth about Arkadin's past--which takes him throughout Europe and to Mexico and features encounters with a variety of fabulously colorful characters--is highly reminiscent of Thompson's search for Rosebud in CITIZEN KANE.Shot in black and white, filled with elegant, cosmopolitan party scenes, and extraordinary close-ups, MR. ARKADIN is a visually stunning film. The camera angles and movement, the exotic sets, the playful music, and the quick cuts--as well as the extremely entertaining and metaphorical stories that Arkadin tells--all help make MR. ARKADIN a sublime treat.Product Identifiers

Worth every penny.
To me it was definitely a worthwhile by and to see the different versions of the film. I've always liked Orson Welles both as an actor a voice actor and as a director it's a shame he got the short end of the stick in a lot of his projects though. I so far watched the confidential report and the Corinth version I haven't read the book yet but it looks interesting. I've seen other films of his most notably the third man Citizen Kane and this one. I still need to watch Chimes of midnight El Sello and the Magnificent Ambersons all of which I have thanks to the Criterion CollectionVerified purchase: YesCondition: Pre-owned
