What does "Orson Welles' filmography" return?

  Wolfram|Alpha isn't sure what to do with your input. Like I say, I'm still finding out how to parse queries effectively, particularly for comparison data...in between working (cough).

    How about "What is the complete list of films made by Orson Welles"?

      How about "What are Google's search results for 'Orson Welles filmography'?"

      I guess Alpha could come with tech support to gently rearrange your questions, but it seems like cheating ;)

      C'mon, you think I didn't try all those :-) Until I get home (and can fire up Mathematica) I'm not sure how to do such symbolic queries. It's not Deep Thought - I feel like getting the most benefit from it would require some kind of Regex. Might be me. They haven't put the FAQs or tutorials up yet. I do feel a lean towards computable rather than retrievable data, if that makes sense. I just started with that example as something I knew about that seemed to typify the popular imagination of how it might be used.
