Bobby E @RT23212962 04/16/2025 Excellent sets ,costuming , casting oh yeah and acting . Everyone needs to take a bow on this one . See more thiago s @Thiagostone 04/10/2025 Filme fraco, o roteiro é fraco, as cenas são fracas, a história é ruim, o elenco é ruim, e ninguém ajuda a melhorar o filme, os personagens são fracos, e o filme deveria ter cenas bem melhores e relevantes, para fazer o filme ser bom.

Zac Efron once again proves he can make it as a top-notch actor it has a great atmosphere, brilliant writing, superb acting, cool lighting and the performances are unbelievably good it's the kind of buddy flick that puts all kinds of relationships to the test to acheive an impossible goal Orson Welles is projected as the confident, arrogant director willing to make whatever sacrifices to get to the finish line Claire Danes is wonderful as well Zac Efron really portays Richard containing all the hope and optimism making it in the real world of acting I like that the ending was still generous even though it seems somewhat cheating the light-heartedness its a shame this didn't get more recognition when it was released and it should have expanded to a wider audience its the kind of movie that shows that people still do what they do even when something bigger is taking place this is a must-see movie See more 09/22/2021 2.9/5 nice period price See more camille l @RT76374992 05/08/2021 Comme d'habitude, Richard Linklater n'a besoin que d'une petite idée toute bête pour réaliser un film tout à fait remarquable. Ici, il parle d'une rencontre entre Orson Welles (Christian McKay est formidable) et un comédien de théâtre aux dents longues joué par un excellent Zac Efron. Et il arrive, de fil en aiguille, avec des dialogues ciselés, des seconds rôles maîtrisés et surtout une virtuosité dans le coming-of-age movie à nous intéresser à cette rencontre. Me & Orson Welles ne rentrera jamais dans les annales mais en temps que tel, c'est un film tout à fait sympathique, à l'image de son auteur. Très belle surprise. See more dave s @RT68722908 02/07/2021 Me and Orson Welles is odd in the sense that everything in the film seems to be dwarfed, to the obvious detriment of the movie, by a single performance. Christian McKay is spectacular as Orson Welles, capturing virtually every nuance of the mercurial force that Welles was, the pompous but brilliant and inspirational actor and director. While the film focuses on budding actor Richard (Zac Efron) and his love for both the theatre and his co-worker Sonja (Claire Danes), the only scenes that truly elevate above the mundane are those where Welles is present. Sure, the movie has nice period details and is an interesting look at Welles' Mercury Theatre, but is ultimately pretty forgettable, with the exception of McKay's electric performance.
