"A Tribute to Orson Welles"
1951
Directed by Hilton Edwards

This restored version of Return to Glennascaul, an Irish ghost story directed by Gate Theatre producer Hilton Edwards and starring Orson Welles, is introduced by filmmaker and Welles specialist Peter Bogdanovich. Out of circulation for over 40 years, the short film features Welles, playing himself, who, while, driving home from the Dublin studio one foggy evening, offers a ride to a man whose car has broken down. His passenger shares a spooky anecdote about the night he stopped to assist a mother and daughter on the same stretch of road and the eerie surprise that resulted from his encounter.  91 minutes.
