It’s Stephen’s pick… ‘The Magnificent Ambersons,’ directed by Orson Welles and released in 1942. It’s the follow-up to his debut film, ‘Citizen Kane,’ and has one of the most famous production backstories of all time, due to reshoots and destroyed footage.

The film has appeared in the top ten of Sight & Sound magazine’s decennial “greatest films” poll 2 times.
