Families Can Talk About
- Families can talk about what they learned about Orson Welles from this movie, and use it as a starting point to research Welles' work as writer, director, and actor. What's the story behind Citizen Kane? William Randolph Hearst was unsuccessful in his attempts to get the studio to destroy the film, but he did forbid his newspapers and radio stations from even mentioning the film.
