[net.movies] Things to Come

WHOA!  "Things to Come" was directed by William Cameron Menzies
in 1936, *not* Orson Welles.  It *was*, however, based on a work
written by H.G.Wells (Welles?).  Orson Welles didn't direct any 
movies until "Citizen Kane" (about 4 years later).
("Things..." was pretty dull, I recall.)

     I believe The Shape of Things to Come is the title of the
H.G. Wells book upon which the movie is based.
