Thread: Young Orson Welles, handsome?

Orson was an attractive man before he put on all that weight. Charistmatic too.

Orson Welles has quite a few of my favorite faces; many of his own invention. He certainly has my favorite voice! If you want to see him at his most breathtaking, see "Prince of Foxes" wherein he plays Cesare Borgia. As Harry Lime in "The Third Man" his look is one of bland innocence. Until his eyes twinkle with mischief. There is a radio station you can get on the net using radiotime.com ...

Im 17 and I watched The Third Man for the first time and when Harry got his first shot of the movie and hes smirking in the light i kind of went......"Oh wow"

I love the way he looked when he was young ( he carried all that weight very nicely :) Also , a tall and well built man with an innocent face & deep voice is such a hot and sexy combination . Watch him in "Jane Eyre " and you will know who was the real Rochester ;)

Not handsome, but attractive. He's not the Messiah, he's a very naughty boy!

This is always a great misunderstanding. Welles was as made up playing young Kane as he was the elderly Kane. As well as wore a girdle.

I'm not referring to Citizen Kane. I found him attractive in quite a few other films. Time of your life, huh, kid?

Made up in them too. He was made up in all his films, especially falses noses, the one and only exception is The Third Man at Carol Reeds insistance. No make up, no false nose, no nothing.

How fascinating. To think that I found him particularly attractive in The Third Man, without his adorable false nose and girdle. Time of your life, huh, kid?

Oh my goodness, yes. If you haven't seen it yet, get hold of a copy of "Prince of Foxes." He plays Cesare Borgia. Actually, I don't think he was ever unattractive. If a person was really unsure, all they had to do was stick around until Mr. Welles began to speak.
