Great story,Churchill was amazing.

...Real people real Tv...stories of immense clarity and laughter................Un like the crap we have today............etc.........

I have always liked Orson Welles. I'm 61 years old and I always thought for some reason when I was a lot younger I thought he was a Brit. Just because of his speech his mannerisms and his diction and vocabulary. I found out later on that he was from Milwaukee if I can recall. This man was such a brilliant human being extremely talented and dedicated. And he did go against the norm when it came to the Hollywood.

What an incredible bittersweet moment that is! I could listen to Orson Welles all day or night! Truly a joy to see this! :)

If that is true that's one of the all time great Churchill stories.

His smile at the end. :-D

WoW what a man churchill was

Orson! What an amazing man, an excellent actor and director, who could make a film over many years, and it still be utterly outstanding.

We've had some literate presidents but none that I know of who could quote Shakespeare from memory.

great story i just love listening to Orson talk

sooooooooo cute! what a man! bless you Mister Orson!

I could listen to these two for hours. Outstanding TV.

It annoys me when people get accused of name dropping. The reason these names are dropped is because they are absolutely fascinating for every day people to hear about these great stories and anecdotes of the Worlds greats.

Welles is the greatest film director in American history. He was ahead of his time then. In fact, he is ahead our time now.

Watch Richard Burton's Parkinson interview with another fantastic Churchill story.

I've had this page bookmarked for 2 years now, and this is still one of the best anecdotes I've ever heard in my life. This video launched a 4 hour research binge researching Orson Wells life. Did you know that he is the voice of Unicron from the original transformers movie?

Along with the Richard Burton interviews, his talks with Orson Welles are his best.

His impression of Churchill is amazing!

Awesome. Beautifully told and the physical imitation is spot on.

Winston had a marvelous, impish sense of humour. Orson's example is a new one for me.

His interviews are awesome 👌 👏

A very funny anecdote. It cheered me up. Thanks.

What a great story teller. This Welles was a titan.

That is a beautiful thing. Such grace and eloquence are all but unknown to the twenty-first century.

All class.

Winston Churchill really was a class act. He joined the British Army in 1895 and saw action in British India, the Anglo-Sudan War, and the Second Boer War, gaining fame as a war correspondent and writing books about his campaigns before he even entered politics. It was only fitting that someone with such experience would lead his nation to a successful defence against a Nazi army that swept through Europe. It's also a testament to his leadership that even though he was voted out following World War II, that he was still leader of the opposition, and then was voted back in as Prime Minister only 6 years later in 1951, a position that he held until he decided to retire in 1955. Orson Wells here gave an excellent representation of the man and why he had earned such respect.

@MarkHarrison733

Churchill was a Zionist traitor. He was bribed to destroy Europe and the British Empire by Strakosch. He was voted out by a landslide before World War II had ended, lost again in 1950, and lost again in 1951. His own Cabinet forced him out in 1955.

Churchill had the rare distinction of being able to see into the future, the past, the time he was in, and had a reasonable understanding of what was within himself. And unlike almost all "great" men... a brilliant sense of humour, based in self deprecation. When asked why he was late to commons once he quipped that he'd been up all night rehearsing his spontaneous witticisms.... self deprecating, revealing, honest, funny,

Brilliant Welles!💚
