Leonard Maltin (used with permission)<!-- surphace-title end --><!-- surphace start --> </FONT>
</FONT>
<P><FONT color=#800080 size=2>I am, at once, a complete sucker for this movie
and potentially its severest critic. On the one hand, I am fascinated by the
career of Orson Welles, and have read a great deal about (and interviewed people
involved with) his tumultuous life in New York during the late 1930s. Not yet a
household name, he juggled a burgeoning theatrical agenda with his…</FONT></P>
<P><FONT color=#800080 size=2>Mercury Players and a busy schedule acting on
radio - which paid the bills. But because I’m so familiar with the territory and
its principal players, I’m going to be fairly demanding of a film that attempts
to dramatize that period and its colorful cast of characters.</FONT></P>
<P><FONT color=#800080 size=2>I’m happy to say that Richard Linklater’s <I>Me
and Orson Welles</I> won me over completely.</FONT></P>
<P><FONT color=#800080 size=2>Yes, I was aware that little of it was shot in
Manhattan and that there are no New York actors in its cast…but if that requires
a certain leap of faith, Linklater and company amply reward us by being so
persuasive in their portrayal of Welles himself and the zeitgeist of his
eternally harried theatrical troupe (and its frequently exasperated producer,
John Houseman, nicely played by the versatile Eddie Marsan). I can’t think of
many films that capture both the spirit and the detail of putting on a show,
under great pressure, as this one does, tracing the fabled Mercury production of
<I>Julius Caesar </I>in 1937. This one makes us feel as if we’re actually
there.</FONT></P>
<P><FONT color=#800080 size=2>Teen heartthrob Zac Efron proves his mettle in the
pivotal role of an artistic-minded high school student who stumbles into a job
with Welles and gets caught up in the whirlwind of the enterprise-and the
mercurial (pun intended) orbit of the Boy Genius. Claire Danes is appealing as
the company Girl Friday who wins his heart, and leads him into an experience
beyond his youthful understanding.</FONT></P>
<P><FONT color=#800080 size=2>Then there is newcomer Christian McKay, who gives
an absolutely astonishing performance as the young Orson Welles. This goes far
beyond mere mimicry; it’s a full-bodied evocation of the charming, bombastic,
grandiloquent, unscrupulous, ego-driven actor-director. As written by Holly Gent
Palmo and Vincent Palmo, Jr. from Robert Kaplow’s novel, </FONT><FONT

we’re not passively observing a pageant of events but actively involved in the
characters and their story. Screenwriter Julian Fellowes has drawn on many
sources to create a witty, often gripping screenplay that tells a story many
people may not know about the teenage girl who was crowned Queen of England in
1837—and how her life was often cruelly manipulated, both before and after

nothing of this period, like me, can follow it all and understand most of it.
(My wife, the Anglophile, had no such problems.) The settings are majestic, the
costumes quite beautiful, but the icing on this cake is the cast, led by Emily
Blunt as the willful young woman who knows her own mind, Rupert Friend as her
cousin Albert, of Germany, who transcends the ritual of arranged marriage to
become the great love of Victoria’s life, the always-wonderful Miranda
Richardson as Victoria’s much-disparaged mother, the Duchess of Kent, the
versatile Mark Strong as her strong-willed advisor Sir John Conroy, Paul Bettany
as the young Queen’s cunning advisor Lord Melbourne, Thomas Kretschmann as
Albert’s calculating uncle King Leopold of Belgium, Jim Broadbent in a vibrant
cameo as King William, and Harriet Walter as his widow, Queen
Adelaide.<BR></BIG><BR> <BIG><I>The Young Victoria</I> brings an
interesting chapter of British history to life in fine fashion. And if the
conflicts in the early part of the story are more compelling than those that
follow, it’s a minor quibble for a solid piece of entertainment.</BIG>
