Summary:The renowned Orson Welles, who directed this 1955 television series, lends his inimitable style to this tour through Europe. In Paris, Welles introduces us to famed artists Juliette Greco and Jean Cocteau, who lived in the St. Germain Des Pres quarter. In London we meet the Chelsea pensioners; in Spain we attend a Madrid bullfight and visit the Basque country. Unfortunately, the last episode (Third Man Returns to Vienna) has been lost.
