BFI Future Film Festival Presents
South East Shorts + Beyond the Basics: Mastering Visual Storytelling in Film

The Magnificent Ambersons

Orson Welles’ acclaimed drama follows two generations in a well-to-do Indianapolis family. Isabel Amberson receives a proposal from dashing Eugene, but opts instead to marry boring Wilbur. Time passes, and Wilbur and Isabel’s only son, George, is loathed as a controlling figure in the town.
