[PT Caffey]

The American Cinematheque's current calendar lists an Orson Welles retrospective scheduled for February 2004 at its Hollywood venue, the restored Egyptian Theater. No information is yet available as to which films will be shown. Does anyone have any details?

NOTE: The rarities programs are the same ones being shown at the Film Forum in New York. Saves me a bunch of $$$, since I was planning on flying East to see them.

No word on how many of the features are going to be restored or new prints. Hopefully, the official schedule will be up soon.
