“Nowadays We’re Treated Like Demented And Delinquent Children, And The Eyes Are Always Upon Us”

All six episodes or Orson Welles’ Sketch Book, a series of 15-minute commentaries by the auteur on a variety of subjects, which ran on the BBC in 1955. Meandering, but off-the-cuff and fun. Each one features some of Welles’ drawing. I’ve embedded Episode 3: “The Police,” in which the host discusses intrusions into privacy by government and modernization.
