Their affair was the great whispered scandal of Hollywood’s golden age the 35-year liaison between American billionaire William Randolph Hearst and his movie star mistress Marion Davies, who lived together in palatial splendour in his Californian castle.
It also inspired perhaps the most celebrated film ever made, Citizen Kane, which on its release in 1941 marked the movie debut of prodigy Orson Welles, who co-wrote, directed and starred in it aged just 26.
Now this extraordinary saga is back in the spotlight with the release of Mank, filmed in black and white, in which Oscar-winning British actor Gary Oldman plays Herman J. Mankiewicz, the washed-up alcoholic hired by Welles to help him write the screenplay of Citizen Kane, for which they shared an Oscar.
