Film7.3DramRomantikOrson Welles‘in başyapıtlarından “Muhteşem Ambersonlar“, aynı zamanda yönetmenin en talihsiz filmlerinden birisi. Yapımcı firmanın marifetiyle yarısından çoğu kurguda yok edilerek (148 dakikadan 88 dakikaya indirildi) gösterime sokulan “Muhteşem Ambersonlar“, aristokrat bir ailenin çöküşünü ve güç dengelerinin bozulması yüzünden bir anda sınıf düşmesini anlatıyor. George Amberson Minafer (Tim Holt) aristokrat bir ailenin, güç-budalası haline gelmiş oğlu. Bir mucit olan Eugene Morgan (Joseph Cotten) George’un annesine aşık oluyor, ancak kadın çok daha zengin bir adam olan Wilbur Minafer’ın (Donald Dillaway) büyüsüne kapılıyor. Yıllar sonra Eugene şehre geri dönüyor, üstelik yeni bir icadın, otomobilin yaratıcısı olarak... Welles’in ölümünden sonra bilgisayarla renklendirilen filmin kurgusunu ileride birçok başarılı filme imza atacak olan Robert Wise yapmıştı.
