Orson Welles

Orson Welles starred in the motion picture The Third Man, about the adventures of Harry Lime, and because of the popularity of the movie Orson Welles decided to host a radio version of the adventures of character Harry Lime . . . but there was a problem with that concept . . . Harry Lime was killed in the movie . . . How does one create a radio program when the leading character was dead? The result is this 52 week series, the first radio show 'pre-quel' . . . sharing stories that took place before the death of anti-hero Harry Lime.
