A cheap and dishonest movie that exhibits no love for film-making or for Citizen Kane, but instead goes for an overly-dramatic story at the expense of truth and the character of the people involved. The distortions are too numerous to list, however the worst is completely missing the passion and genuine charm of Orson Welles, instead portraying him as a nasty, brutish brat. What a wasted opportunity to explore the tempestuous and amazingly creative people who produced a landmark film.
score 1/10
