The Other Side of the Wind first shot in 1970 with Orson Welles sitting in the director's chair. The principal photography went on and off for six years with financial issues and was left uncompleted when Welles died. Other people attempted to finish the film, but the project got stuck. Finally, in 2016, Netflix came out and decided to make a release of the film along with a documentary about its troubled shooting. The film was released in 2018 after 48 years.
