Mr. Arkadin

Mr. Arkadin is a 1955 film directed by and starring Orson Welles. The main character is also the main character in the classic film The Third Man, but the movies aren't dependent on each other so can be viewed separately. That there are multiple versions of this film out there is an interesting story. HBO Max has the Corinth version. You can also see it here at PBS. It's not hard to find free.

Via Daily Motion:



TCM has information. Rotten Tomatoes has an audience score of 80%.

  4. I like how the main character is in 2 films. soif you like the character you get to see them twice. Hope you have a warmer night so you don't lose more plants.

    1. It won't get that cold again this spring. What did us in was the hot summer drought followed by the unusually cold winter.
