Citizen Irate


For most of you under age 50, you may not know this
man. His name was Orson Welles, Oscar winning director,
producer , writer, actor and master broadcaster of War of the Worlds...His epic, Citizen Cane, the slightly veiled story of Randolph Hearst, was possibly the greatest movie of all time...such an incredible talent.


Later in life, he got a little cranky, he mostly made his living doing voice over work (please don't tell me he ever did Love Boat) and he showed his displeasure at his plight in the following recording session...warning:there's some nasty language. This recording has been floating about for years and for those in the business this is a treasured piece of audio and vicarious moment for many voice over artists:
