Why would they say he saved a village? Such a weird lie. Thanks for shedding light on the story. I liked so much of it and then it ended with him hugging Rita...like wtf?
It’s well acted and enjoyable but good to know what are the “liberties” taken with the story. These are made for entertainment and are not historical portraits so always take that “inspired by a true story” with a grain of salt.
I know. I hate that too. Because when I watch stuff like this I think they’re true. It sucks. I like to watch documentaries because I’m interested in people places and things.
RKO 281, better story, better movie, too. Pauline Kael was insane. MANK will be celebrated and rewarded for its lies, its mediocracy, and incompetence. A sign of the times.

So this movie is highly fiction

Man, I LOVE their website! I hope that they do one on the Aviator (Even though it’s a much older movie .).
Amazing video
Fittingly, The Royal Ocean Film Society video is at the top in that sidebar.
Interesting interplay of history and fiction, both movies.
Marion Davies is played by Amanda Seyfried
This was better than rko 281.
Was that the HBO movie with Roy Schneider?
Sorry, Roy Scheider.
@@matthewschwartz6607 yes. Didn't like that film. Just my personal opinion.
agreed

The David Fincher movie?
