Description

The complete screenplay of one of the world's most famous films is presented in this companion to Citizen Kane. Orson Welles's groundbreaking debut as actor and director was surrounded by controversy, with an $842,000 bribe and the wrath of the Hearst newspaper empire attempting to strangle its distribution.

The authorship of the film remains a subject of debate, with Pauline Kael's essay "Raising Kane" offering a detailed examination of Hollywood lore. The original screenplay is accompanied by stills and frame enlargements, providing insight into the making of this remarkable film.
