Did Marion Davies Ever Forgive Mank? Amanda Seyfried Weighs In
Dec 11 2020
One big, burning question David Fincher addresses in Mank is, who really wrote the script for Citizen Kane? As presented in Fincher’s film, Mank (Gary Oldman) is asked to pen a screenplay for Orson Welles. That screenplay ultimately becomes what wins Mank and Welles an Oscar for Best Original Screenplay, Citizen Kane. The trouble is, Mank originally agrees to forgo receiving credit for the piece but then changes his mind when he realizes the script could give his career the boost it needs. Equal credit is awarded and both get that Oscar, but questions still linger regarding who contributed what and when.
