This looks like a good program in that Zac Effron and Claire Danes are in an independent film about Orson Welles.  I hear that Christian McKay, who plays Welles, is fabulous. So tune in folks.  You are in for a real treat.

Richard Linklater, Zac Effron, Claire Danes and Christian Mckay were on ‘Charlie Rose’ last night to discuss their new film Me and Orson Welles. 

Linklater on where the movie comes from:

“It comes from a wonderful novel by Robert Kaplow, a wonderful little historical fiction set in 1937, very charming.  You know, the historical aspects of it are very historical, all the names, everything that happens in the movie is a historical recreation of this moment in Welles life.”

Danes on Orson Wells:

“I learned about Orson Welles in college.  I went to Yale, and English class in my freshman year my professor screened “Citizen Kane” for us and I ended up writing a term paper on it.  I have no idea what I wrote about.  But I watched it for — yes, fast forward and rewound that movie many times.”

Got to Charlie Rose for schedule and show information.
