Title: A very creepy book
Product review: I have been doing a lot of reading on Welles for a research project and while it is clear that Welles was no angel, this book seems to go out of its way to put Welles in the worst possible light. There are too many flights of fancy and liberties taken. For example, based on no evidence Thomson suggests that not only did Welles have sexual relations with Dorothy Commingore but that he practically raped her. Perhaps the book reveals more about the author than it does about its subject.There are some useful takes on lesser known figures like John Toland but on the whole it is a book to take with several grains of salt.
Would you say this review depicts the product in a flattering or unflattering light?
