    He didn’t sell out - Orson did this shit to survive and to finance his own projects.
    He was an incredible talent who was treated badly because he mocked those in power.
    The people in power have no sense of humor and can’t stand to be mocked because of the size of their egos and their inflated sense of their self importance.
    Orson kept on going, paying the price for daring to call out people in power for their contempt.
    This man is legendary.

      No--he wasn't embarrassed with the Vivitar camera ad, he was being light and non-dramatic. Very fitting for a casual snapshot camera. A subtlety that shows he was adjusting his reading to the product. Contrast that with the more rich and weighty deluvery of the burgundy copy. The white wine readings were somewhere in between.

    I like that he has a a sort of mini flashback every time he delivers his lines that what Paul Masson said a century ago is still true now. I wonder if they directed him to look bewildered or look around and act like you are remembering something profound. He makes it seem like he was there when Paul Masson said that infamous slogan

    He made large sums from ads: enough to sustain a very pleasant lifestyle, but not enough to get his films finished. For that he relied on dubious deals with shady characters, and so few did get finished.
