Orson Welles - It's All True (1942) - The Story of Samba

Welles was sent on a goodwill mission to Brazil in February 1942 - at the behest of Nelson Rockefeller (then, the coordinator of Inter-American Affairs and amajor shareholder in RKO) to make the non-commercial film without salary to support the war effort as part of the Good Neighbor Policy. Welles filmed Rio de Janeiro's Carnaval in both Technicolor and black-and-white. This was to be the basis for "The Story of Samba", a segment of his uncompleted feature 'It's All True'. This sequence features Grande Othelo and Piery Ribeiro, son of Welles' advisor on the shoot the composer Herivelto Martins, who duet singing 'Praça Onze'. (There's a list of songs that Welles considered for the 'Story of Samba' sequence here: http://www.wellesnet.com/?p=1244).
