I would be amiss if I did not mention all the struggles Welles went through in producing this adaptation. Budgeting problems, deadline problems, editing problems, you name it. They unfortunately show at times, with out of sync dubbing, ugly visual choices, and a bare-essentials cutting approach to the source material. However, one can analyze how revolutionary Welles was by piecing this together as well as he did. His cinematography and vision was unmatched, and he made the most out of a bad situation. If you're still skeptical of this filmmaker's cinematic genius, I recommend listening to the commentary. This was a flawed effort, yet I believe it to be an overall successful one.
