Aroview: Tells the story of The Battle Of CITIZEN KANE, Orson Welles' brilliant debut film which was blocked by media-baron Randolph Hearst who felt the film's title character was based on himself.
Of course it went on to be considered by many the greatest film ever made. Worthy performances from Liev Schreiber (as Welles), James Cromwell (as Hearst), John Malkovich and others make for a restrained, evenhanded drama.

2 stars (Good Try) The story is reasonably well known so there is little drama here - it is more of having the necessary amount of tolerance that is needed to spend time with these precious characters. ~Tubbs
