"I don't care how many books or articles you've read on Orson Welles or the movie "Citizen Kane," this is a must-read for anyone interested in film history and/or the creative process. Harlan Lebo has, in my opinion, written the definitive work on "Kane" and filmmaker Welles. Both the movie and the man are American classics. I initially found this book on the new non-fiction shelf at the public library. I borrowed it and, after looking it over, immediately returned it because I wanted to own the book for my Kindle. This happens when I discover a "keeper," I purchased the electronic book from Amazon that very day and the Kindle formatted volume matches the printed book word-for-word and has all the photographs, which display nicely on my PaperWhite. I highly recommend it to anyone interested in films and film-making." - Wordchipper

Harlan Lebo (Citizen Kane: A Filmmaker’s Journey) has uncovered hundreds of differences between the Orson Welles / Herman Mankiewicz final script and what ended up on the screen — changes he says that made Citizen Kane the greatest film ever made.

From Facebook (Jim Carlton):
"I thought I knew most of what there was to know about Kane until I read Lebo's marvelous book."

That idea dovetails with his work with Koch & others on the radio Merc scripts:

Rarely First-Drafting, but rather, Constructive Polishing-Finishing.
