latimes: ‘Citizen Kane’ gets inside the castle: Seventy-one years after real-life press baron William Randolph Hearst tried to derail Orson Welles’ famous film about a newspaper tycoon, it will be shown at the sprawling hillside estate that bears his name. The parallels between Hearst and the movie’s Charles Foster Kane character are obvious — but so, too, are the differences, said Steve Hearst, who manages the family’s ranches and other business interests. Photo: Orson Welles, left, and Joseph Cotten in Welles’ 1941 film “Citizen Kane,” which will be shown March 9 at the Hearst Castle Theater. I must go!
