This WAS a great interview. Saw this back in '73 when I was living in San Francisco. I had it on reel-to-reel for many years but lost track of it. I'd love to see this released on a DVD. Somewhere towards the end of the show Welles reads a passage from a book by Antoine De Saint-Exupéry on mail flying in the mountains of South America which is just wonderful. Thanks for the link.

This is all so depressing when viewed today!
We don't have ANYONE with the wit and public charm and intelligence and thoughtfulness and well-spoken command of the language like Welles---or Cavett---on TV or the talk shows anymore.
Those of us who are "of-an-age" were so lucky to have experienced this kind of thing firsthand for at least a portion of our lives.
