The Other Side of the Wind

The New York Sun reports that a deal is nearing completion to finish The Other Side of the Sun, Orson Welles’s final film:

The unedited negatives of the film have sat in a Paris vault for more than 30 years, unseen by anyone other than Welles, who died in 1985. …

Welles managed to smuggle a working copy of his film out of Paris, but was denied access to the original negatives for the last 10 years of his life.
