Trivia
Next Academy Award?
In early 2020, various webites had already predicted Fincher to win next year's Academy Award for Best Director, as an early prediction. It was even before the release date of the film was announced.
'Citizen Kane' second film
This is the second film to detail the process of creating 'Citizen Kane' (1941), following the semi-fictitious 'RKO 281' (1999) which starred John Malkovich as Herman J. Mankiewicz and Liev Schreiber as Orson Welles.
A trip to the past
For most of December 2019, the film was shot Kember Campbell Ranch in Victorville, California where Herman J. Mankiewicz wrote 'Citizen Kane' (1941). Considering the ranch changed very little over the years, the location helped reflect the time period of the 1940s.
