"I'm gonna let you finish," said White, which quickly drew applause and laughs from the crowd. "But Orson Welles made one of the greatest films of all time!" Malloy, who also directed the Stripes' video for "Icky Thump," took it all in stride: "I should just go out on a high note," he said. "Are we done?"
