奥逊·威尔斯是美国历史上一位罕见的具有重要文化意义的电影家，甚至赢得了欧美诸位文学大师的尊重。迄今为止，所有从事严肃电影事业的导演、演员，恐怕仍然不敢正视这位空前绝后的“巨人”。有趣的是，奥逊·威尔斯身材高大，晚年体重达到400磅，在好莱坞与马龙·白兰度被人并称为两座“人山”。虽然只有美国影帝白兰度可以挑战威尔斯的巨人称号，但是单纯从体积上来看，奥逊·威尔斯肯定胜出：有一次他的整个身体被车座卡住，不得不请机械师把车拆了。
每年，欧美各国学者、作家撰写的研究、回忆奥逊·威尔斯的作品层出不穷。美国维京书局本周推出很多读者期待已久的一部奥逊·威尔斯传记分卷，此书作者是英国作家、导演兼演员西蒙·卡洛，他三年前发表奥逊·威尔斯传记第一卷一鸣惊人，此次不负众望，又以描写威尔斯中期影坛生涯的第二卷传记再掀波澜，在书中专门研究威尔斯“天才自毁”的残酷过程！

威爾斯唯一一部公映的彩色電影，故事依舊奇情：澳門富商從秘書口中聽到一個愛情傳說，有人為了香燈有後願意付錢找人與妻子上床。傳說歸傳說，但澳門富商卻要使這個不朽故事成真，找來美女珍．摩露，當正是自己妻子，要她找人轟烈地做愛做的事。乍聽下來真是一場天方夜譚，但影片拍來感人至深，53歲的威爾斯與成熟的珍．摩露演出動人不已，最後一個鏡頭更被影迷形容是「魔術」，令影片入圍柏林國際電影節競逐最佳電影金熊獎。
The only colour film by Welles publicly released is another showcase of the absurdity of human nature. A Macau millionaire is told a legend about someone who is willing to pay a huge sum for someone who would sleep with his wife in order to produce an heir. In an act to make the legend real and to immortalise it, the millionaire finds Jeanne Moreau to be his wife and starts to search for the man who would make love to her. A potent performance by Welles and Moreau makes the film purely magical; a Golden Berlin Bear nominee for Berlin International Film Festival.

Accused barn burner and conman Ben Quick arrives in a small Mississippi town and quickly ingratiates himself with its richest family, the Varners.
