They liked their crud in the old days – you have to know this was based on a popular 1935 movie (itself based on a novel) to understand why Orson Welles bothered adapting it, particularly for his Season 2 premiere. It’s the tale of a romance between some guy and girl from childhood; they are reunited later and he winds up arrested for murder. It’s boring. The most interesting thing is some trippy use of dialogue, particularly the opening sequence, but this is hard going for the most part.
