Not in any particular order:

The Magnificent Ambersons
The Trial
F for Fake
Mr Arkadin
Citizen Kane

I'm surprised no one else has mentioned The Trial. Welles thought it was his best film, and I agree.

My top five

1. The Magnificent Ambersons (I know, I know, I'm a strange one. Even though it was heavily altered by the studio it is still an amazing movie)
2. Citizen Kane
3. Chimes At Midnight (My favorite Orson Welles performance)
4. F For Fake
5. The Stranger

Re: My top five

Citizen Kane
Touch of Evil
F For Fake

Re: List your top 5 Orson Welles Films here

"Citizen Kane"
"Macbeth" (1948)
"Moby Dick" (the 1956 version)
"The Third Man"
"Othello"

I'd list "Chimes at Midnight", but that's more than five.

No one mentions Tomorrow Is Forever 1946, perhaps his best acting performance. Imo
