...That?s a shame, because it?s a huge (some 200 hours over 20 years) and impressive body of work, and it?s the overwhelming extant evidence of the Wellesian preoccupations and attitudes that gave birth to "Kane" and its kin. Nearly every actor who appeared in "Kane" - Joseph Cotten, Everett Sloane, Ray Collins, George Coulouris, Agnes Moorehead,William Alland, Paul Stewart - had worked with Welles on radio. Herman J. Mankiewicz, the screenwriter of "Kane," had penned several "Campbell Playhouse" episodes, including "The Murder of Roger Ackroyd" and "Huckleberry Finn." Houseman, who midwifed the "Kane" script, effectively produced the radio...

We warned you that the interview would be the opposite of illuminating - it would, in fact, be utterly depressing to see a two-bit congressional Lothario dig himself deeper into shame by refusing to have any shame at all. We warned you that if you had any distaste left over from impeachment (which at least starred the President of the United States, and a great performer at that) to boycott the whole sham and rent a movie...
...return home, she can do so in safety. One thing she does not tolerate is Fakhra's shunning of mirrors. "I made her remove her veil and look at herself," Durrani says firmly. "Fakhra's face is the crime of a man against a woman. It is not shame for her." The shame resides back in Pakistan?where a powerful man's unpunished rage can scar forever a woman's life...
