Me and Orson Welles

I’ll admit, at first I was slightly ashamed to watch a movie with Zac Efron, but I gave it a try anyway. The movie is about a young actor who earns a part in Orson Welles’ production of Julius Caesar. To me, the best parts of the film were Christian McKay’s performance as prick director/actor, Welles, and the interpretation of Shakespeare’s work. In fact, I could have done with just seeing Welles’ 94 minute production of Caesar and skipped the plot entirely. Alas, the mediocre story was there and, when coupled with Zac Efron, resulted in only an okay film.
