Orson Welles, Norman Mailer and Citizen Kane
The filmmaker grew to greatly resent those who asked about his 1941 classic.
It’s the 75th anniversary year of Citizen Kane, President-elect Trump’s favorite film.
Tomorrow at the AFI Film Festival in Los Angeles, a remastered version of the 1941 classic will be screened beginning at 1:30 p.m. PT, followed by a master class taught by Peter Bogdanovich. The print was struck for a special new Blu-ray edition of the classic.
In the lead-up to Sunday’s event, the American Film Institute interviewed Bogdanovich, still working on his own projects today and of course always in possession of a full range of great stories about his late close friend, Orson Welles.
