Product Details:
Written and directed by legendary Orson Welles, Confidential Report is one of classic cinema’s most gripping mysterious, deftly laced with dark twists and ominous turns. As a man lies dying at the edge of a wharf, his final two words direct a rogue adventurer, Guy Van Stratten (Richard Arden), on a path that will lead him to the mysterious Mr. Arkadin (Orson Welles), a ruthless financial jackal. Seeking to influence the tycoon through his beautiful socialite daughter Raina (Paola Mori), Van Stratten is brought before the financial giant where he is presented with a dossier exposing his own criminal past. Fearing Arkadin’s wrath Van Stratten agrees to prepare his own dossier, this one on Arkadin’s history, a past the mogul can no longer remember. But once Van Stratten begins his investigation, he quickly discovers that anyone who knew Arkadin in his previous life had disappeared for a reason. When those interviewed begin to show up dead, it soon becomes apparent that Arkadin’s motives are more sinister than anyone could have anticipated. |
