Orson Wells Meets HG Wells »
What’s the film called?
It’s called Citizen Kane.
This is an all-too-short clip from an American radio programme in which Orson Welles meets H.G. Wells. I never knew they ever met, and I never knew what old Herbert George sounded like before listening to this. Welles was only 25 at the time. It’s amazing, and the meeting of great minds is conducted in a such a good humoured and very respectful way. Just listen to that amazingly adorable old man!
If I don’t understand misunderstand you completely, I think there’ll be a lot of jolly good new noises in it.

Well you’re out doing your Christmas shopping this holiday season don’t buy one of these. Instead make your way to a used bookstore or your independent bookseller and fill your basket full of books you think your loved one would like. If they REALLY love to read the joy of new books to read and add to their library will far out weigh the joy they’d have for a piece of plastic that pretends to be a book in sheep’s clothing.
