Candidly and unapologetically, I love Orson Welles. I understand people think that once you’re labeled a genius (by almost anyone), you’re instantly overrated. But The Third Man, Touch of Evil, the outtakes from the Paul Masson Wine commercials. Brilliant all, and he didn’t even direct two of those.
Frankly, I’d watch Orson Welles read a phone book, as they say. A Twitter user by the name of @NoChorus wrote a series of deranged musings in Orson Welles’ voice about nearly every piece of pop culture the famed director never lived to see.
From Slenderman to Seinfeld, these hilarious fake Orson Welles reviews will bring you joy while also forcing you to look up a few words you’ve never seen before. I love it. I hope you do too.
Note: I’d love to list exactly what Orson is talking about in each of these, but that would ruin the suspense, the visceral, raw, erotic energy of these tweets. Pretentious. Precise. Perfect.
