Citations

I tried to cite a book but the I have the code wrong could someone fix this? Brett Knoss Davies, Marion. The Times We Had: Life with William Randolf Hearst. Bobbs-Merrill Company, Indianapolis, 1975. Foreword by Orson Welles. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 69.168.160.185 (talk) 02:19, 25 September 2011 (UTC)[reply]

For citations, please see Help:Citations_quick_reference. Make sure you are not using copyrighted material. NOTE there are other problems with this as well. Please check for spelling and what seems like missing words. Also it's Davies, not ″Davis″. Welcome, and thank you for contributing, but please take your time and do it correctly!

Untitled

The link to Thomas Lennon is mistaken...that link takes you to Thomas Lennon of Reno 911! fame - however, it is a different Thomas Lennon who wrote for the film RKO 281. I don't know anything about editing an article, but if someone else cares enough...

I fixed it. 28bytes 04:54, 2 October 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Films considered the greatest ever

I removed the link to Films that have been considered the greatest ever as this film isn't considered one of the greatest ever. Citizen Kane is, but a film about the making of Citizen Kane is not. IrishGuy ^talk 01:26, 20 February 2007 (UTC)[reply]

TV movie?

IMDB says this was a TV movie (having been scaled back from a planned theatrical release). If so, this article should say it was a TV movie. Also the poster image here is captioned as the 'theatrical release poster' which sounds wrong if this never had a theatrical release? --213.104.249.48 (talk) 10:09, 3 August 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Of Soprano and Impressario in Citizen Kane

Transcription from the Wikipedia article RKO 281 section Misrepresentation of Davies and Hearst :

Orson Welles wrote "And what of Susan Alexander? What indeed. It was a real man who built an opera house for the soprano of his choice, and much in the movie was borrowed from that story, but the man was not Hearst."

Welles does not go on to say or allow his reader to know any more about the man that Welles says there was "real.'

So here in this talk page is one clue : seek any links in a wide web search between Leonard Jerome and Minnie Hauk.

Well, it's sensitive. . . maybe. But why mention him . . as a real man, and allow Welles to think that the world of his followers would not really be interested to pursue his identity, this man, first, second or third, who had lived . .? — Preceding unsigned comment added by Laurencebeck (talk • contribs) 07:50, 16 April 2013 (UTC)[reply]
