Written (somewhat prosaically) by John Logan, based in part on the documentary 'The Battle Over Citizen Kane', for HBO films.
I liked Liev Schreiber as Welles, but it's a tough act as the man had such a great voice and vocal delivery which is not easy to match. Roy Scheider is slightly and sadly just past his prime but John Malkovich (Mankiewicz), James Cromwell and Melanie Griffith (Hearst and Marion Davies) are good. With Brenda Blethyn, Fiona Shaw, Liam Cunningham, David Suchet, Anastasia Hille and Roger Allam (Walt Disney!)
