He really needed the money, obviously. Dare I say of Orson; from hunger :)
Avatar 12:19am
Droll:

fleep, Yeah, but you still rode dinosaurs and powered cars with your feet.

This Orson is truly shameless. This needs a 4-on-the-floor beat, a bass loop, and filter sweep.

OTOH Orson also did "The Third Man". Been reading about postwar Vienna. What a cesspool.

The Begatting falls on the Orson Is Cool side. He lent his gravitas to solidify Tricky Dick's rep as an absurd abherration.
