orson welles : 100th birthday


Recommended Posts

Okay Orson has been dead for years so I don't understand people celebrating a birthday of a dead person?

It's called a centenary. The 100th anniversary of his birth and therefore a celebration of his life and career, not just simply a "happy birthday" to a dead guy. The same term is used for the 100th anniversary of historic events but it can certainly apply to celebrating and remembering significant lives and careers.
