Nothing to do with Orson Welles, but maybe of interest...

This doesn't have anything to do with Welles per se, but it might be of interest to some Wellesnet members.
TCM will be airing Timothy Carey's film The World's Greatest Sinner on October 24th at 2am as part of a new series of "Underground" films.
Carey was a prolific character actor who often worked with Kazan, Kubrick, and Cassavetes, and used his own money to make a few highly eccentric and personal films (this being the first).
The score, incidently, was done by a young Frank Zappa.

Thanks for the notice - that's one I've always wanted to see!

Check out this in-depth look at Timothy Carey’s bizarro career as a filmmaker – http://www.absolutefilms.net/tim_carey/FilmFax2004.html

It's an absolutely delightful piece about yet another maverick actor/director who followed his muse and paid no heed to the moneymen...

Damned if you are not right, Harvey!

If we could not ascertain that the facts about Tim Carey's life are correct, your retrospective essay might be taken as parody.

Certainly, Carey followed in Welles' footsteps (and beyond) as a maverick. What a shame in these days of our national search for mavericks, we still could not have them both around.

Thank you.

Thanks for the info, K Dobry. Like Roger, I've never seen the film, but I've heard alot about it over the years, and I'm looking forward to finally seeing it. I loved Carey as the psycho rifleman in Kubrick's The Killing. Good article too, Harvey. Carey would have been an awesome Luca Brazzi in Godfather I. Can't believe he turned it down.
