Chimes at Triskel

Cork's Triskel Christchurch Cinema have asked me to introduce an upcoming screening of Chimes at Midnight this May 30th to mark the centenary of Orson Welles. Perhaps, in the absence of Mr Welles himself or, for that matter, of Jack Falstaff, they needed a fat man with a beard to officiate and I was the nearest to hand. Or maybe it had something to do with this recent piece I wrote about Welles. In any case, it's going to be a splendid event - the chance of seeing this newly restored masterpiece on the big screen is not to be missed!
