    In Mank's earlier flashbacks, which takes place in 1940 a few weeks before the car crash that lands him in the 'present' timeline of the film, we hear him disparaging the movie The Wizard of Oz. Not much is given by way of explanation, but a little digging reveals exactly why. Mankiewicz was one of ten screenwriters assigned to The Wizard of Ozin 1...

    To explain, we also have to delve into Mankiewicz's politics. He's shown in the movie to be more left-leaning than he was in reality.

    Who really wrote the bulk of Citizen Kane? Mank's answer is, well, Mank. The real answer is far more complicated and can really only be summed up as: we're not sure. What is true in Mankis the set up – the broken leg, the dry ranch, the secretary, German physical therapist, and that Mankiewicz initially voluntarily gave up credit. What's fiction is...

    "Don't worry… the white wine came up with the fish": Mankiewicz did say this, but not at a party thrown by Hearst. Hearst's castle: Was as bananas as Fincher made it look. Poor Sara: We don't get much of her, but she was routinely described as long-suffering. What's most hair-raising is that, in reality, she and Mankiewicz were the same age: both w...
