L'orgoglio degli Amberson (1942)
La vedova Amberson vorrebbe risposarsi con un antico innamorato. Il figlio orgoglioso ed egoista glielo impedisce, facendola morire di dolore. Solo allora il giovane comprende il proprio errore. Una saga familiare di grandi ambizioni, da un romanzone di Booth Tarkington. La seconda regia di Welles, un capolavoro di cui è difficile parlare senza usare superlativi, anche se è stato disconosciuto dallo stesso autore (che qui si ritaglia la parte del narratore) a causa dei tagli brutali (più di 40 minuti) apportati dai produttori.
