SynopsisOrson Welles is the bombastic wonder boy of radio and stage. But is he also a murderer? Walter Gibson--creator of pulp superhero the Shadow--travels to New York City to collaborate on a script with Welles, star of the radio show The Mercury Theatre on the Air . The young Welles is a charming but difficult taskmaster who relishes dramatic blowouts with friends, lovers, and colleagues. So when a dead body is found in the studio minutes before the live broadcast of The War of the Worlds , Gibson knows Welles will be the New York Police Department's number one suspect. Gibson has exactly one hour--while Welles is on the air enacting the infamous hoax story of a Martian invasion--to find the real murderer and clear the radio star's name. With its brilliant reconstruction of the broadcast that hoodwinked the nation, The War of the Worlds Murder is a paean to radio's golden age.
