The 18th annual Málaga Film Festival in Spain will feature Chimes at Midnight during its April 17-26 run.
The Orson Welles-directed film will be saluted on the 50th anniversary of its release. Chimes at Midnight debuted in Spain in 1965, but was not released in the U.S. until 1967.
The festival will include an April 22 roundtable on Chimes at Midnight. The participants will feature Esteve Riambau, author of The Things We’ve Seen: Welles and Falstaff. He is the director of the Film Library of Catalonia and has written on Welles’ Don Quixote.
Other participants include Luciano Berriatúa, restorer of Chimes at Midnight for Spanish Film Library; and actor José María Pou.
Further details can be found at the Málaga Film Festival website.
