Lost Cinema of Orson Welles?

Discuss all Welles related Documentary projects.

What is the documentary I've heard about called "The Lost Cinema of Orson Welles"? It sounds eerily similar to "One Man Band" - with clips from OSOTW, Merchant of Venice, The Deep, etc.; could it be the same film under a different title?

TIA

If this is from the guy on ebay who sells the various bootleg Welles titles, I'm sure it's the same thing. You'll notice that he calls everything by a different title (ie Filming Othello as Documentary on Othello or something similar), so as to presumably avoid getting busted, although that seems unlikely at this point.

Oh, you must mean Opie2001! "Lost Cinema" is actually titled such on the print, and it is exactly the same as "One Man Band," though it excises most of the sex scene from OSOTW. His print of "Lost Cinema" was also a serious upgrade from my echoing copy of "Band" so I'm happy. I've used him to supplement my collection and am grateful to him. :D
