From 1955, 1960, and 1963.

If he were just known for his work as a writer, director, and actor in the classic 1941 movie Citizen Kane, that would be enough to cement Orson Welles’ place in movie history. But he also wrote The Magnificent Ambersons and Touch of Evil, and is an uncredited writer on such notable films as The Stranger, Macbeth, The Third Man, and Othello.
