( RKO 281 y reveals making o/Wdfaspe
classic movie Citizen Kane/orffie tri
LONDON (AP) — Liev Schreiber, a relative un
known, plays legendary filmmaker Orson Welles in the
new HBO film “RKO 281.” But perhaps an even more
astonishing impersonation finds Britain standing in for
the United States in this bewitching behind-the-scenes
account of the most celebrated of all Hollywood films.
“I told them that was the way 1 wanted to do it,”
director Ben Ross said. His choice lias paid off hand
somely, not least considering that the modestly bud
geted 90-minute TV film has the look of a major stu
dio feature.
The $12 million venture, from a script by playwright-
turned-screenwriter John Logan {Never the Sinner), pre
mieres Saturday at 7 p.m. on HBO. The
cast includes John Malkovich as Her
man J. Mankiewicz — Welles’ collab
orator, as well as occasional adversary,
on the 1941 classic — and Roy Schei-
der as George Schaefer, the belea
guered RKO Studio head who gave Cit
izen Kane its title.
Kane began life with the working ti
tle “RKO 281,” which was the produc
tion number given it by the studio.
Dominating a starry supporting
lineup are James Cromwell and
Melanie Griffith, both in terrific form
as media magnate William Randolph
Hearst — the inspiration for Kane —
and his mistress, Marion Davies.
Fiona Shaw and Brenda Blethyn
appear, jointly cast against type to
droll effect, as gossip titans Hedda Hopper and
Louella Parsons.
“I’d heard about it
chiefly through the
Peanuts cartoons.
They were always
referring to Welles
and 'Rosebud’ and
some sled.”

It’s the filmmakers’ ingenuity and cost-effectiveness
that were evident during a visit to the set last spring,
where a sound stage at Bray studios west of London was
doubling as the great hall at Xanadu, newspaper mogul
Charles Foster Kane’s formidable manse in the re-en
acted filming of a scene from Citizen Kane.
Production designer Maria Djurkovic created an enor
mous polystyrene fireplace and winding staircase
dressed with elaborate statuary to suggest Welles’ ver
sion of San Simeon, the magnificently over-the-top Cal
ifornia “castle” that the real Hearst called home.
“What are the two things one really remembers? The
staircase and the fireplace,” Djurkovic said. “That’s
where we put our money.”
The shoot, say the filmmakers, has been a series of
adroit substitutions in which even the reliably gray Eng
lish weather turned unusually Californialike.
“I’d heard about it chiefly through the Pea:, idH ’ , ’ £
