New York, April 1: Personal belongings of Orson Welles, who directed 1941's 'Citizen Kane', including his camera, scripts and photos from the set of the classic film, are due to be auctioned.
The youngest daughter of the actor-writer, Beatrice Welles, found the memorabilia in 2013 and decided to sell off the items because she believes her father would have liked film buffs to have open access to them instead of sending them to a museum, the New York Daily News reported.
Beatrice said that her father just did not believe in schooling or in academic things and museums kind of have that connotation.
More than 70.

There’s a new Cuban revolution in comedy movie Juan of the Dead — the undead kind.
Zombies try to take over Havana in the foreign film, and two friends Juan (Alexis Dias de Villegas) and Lazardo (Jorge Molina) launch a zombie extermination service to help rid the city of the hungry undead, as well as make some cash along the way. While the government blames the zombie attack on Americans trying to topple the regime, Juan and Lazardo gather their weapons and make a killing — in more ways than one.
In Spanish with English subtitles, the unrated Juan of the Dead is written and directed by Alejandro Brugues (Personal Belongings) and gives a wink to the British comedy-horror Shaun of the Dead.
The DVD carries this special features:

You will be relieved to learn, I know, that I survived the suspense of the cliffhanger at the end of Part 10. And as with so many of the surprises (and suspenses) of The Sandman, it was less and more than it appeared. We might have expected Nuala’s luring of Morpheus at the end of the previous part to lead to a story of great explosions back in the Dreaming, or we might have guessed Part 11 would give us an epic attack by the Furies, or we might have feared a giant climax of gigantic giantness to lurk around the corner, with Nuala as a devious double-agent of the forces of evil.
Instead, we learned that Nuala is perhaps best described as naive, and that the destruction heralded by the Furies will be slow and steady and insidious. They have no need for speed. They are the most patient creatures in the universe.
