i understand they couldn't get the money for a theatrical feature so it was finished off as a TV film. it's ok as a straight-forward fictionalisation of the doc "the battle over citizen kane" but i seem to recall some pretty tall poetic license being taken (a meal with welles entertaining hurst) for pretty half-assed dramatic effect. malkovich and melanie griffith were very good in it. the recent "cradle will rock" was considerably more interesting, even though it deals with an earlier period in welles' life. ben >Is Ridley Scott's "rko 281" still in development, or is it in production >yet?
