Clearly, the Puppets were kids that any mother could love, but how much do we really know about their respective families? Did Derrick’s mom also like to dress him up and pose him? Were there musical instruments lying around Cris and Curt’s house as well? The answers to these questions may never be known. But what photographic evidence does reveal this much: the boys were cute when they were little.

Orson Welles removes his makeup on the set of Citizen Kane.
Cinephilia & Beyond has an amazing find: the complete collection of Orson Welles’ Sketch Book: “a series of six short television commentaries by Orson Welles for the BBC in 1955. Written and directed by Welles, the 15-minute episodes present the filmmaker’s commentaries on a range of subjects. Welles frequently draws from his own experiences and often illustrates the episodes with his own sketches.”
All the essential documentaries on Orson Welles, including Orson Welles: The Paris Interview (1960), Filming ‘The Trial’ (1981), The Battle Over Citizen Kane (1996), Shadowing the Third Man (2004), Orson Welles: The One-Man Band (1995), With Orson Welles: Stories from a Life in Film (1990), Filming ‘Othello’ (1978), F for Fake (1973), Orson Welles with French film school students, Orson Welles “Its All True” Citizen Kane and RKO, and seven-minute video of a very young-looking Welles (he was 23 at the time) addressing an onslaught of press members on October 31, 1938, the day after The War of the Worlds broadcast.

I can’t believe these haven’t provoked more commentary. Completely adorable! Just further proof of the scientific connection between great music + cute toddlers. . . or something like that. . .
I’ve actually gotten a lot of comments inquiring if the children are for sale, but I’ve chosen not to approve them.
Derrick, did your dad play guitar in a band? You’ve got to reply!
