William Randolph Hearst screamed illegal and slander when he learned that Orson Welles was producing, writing, and starring in a movie which was based upon his life.

Like lovers in a gay French film, the couple first talked about the romance that neither Louella Parsons nor Hedda Hopper in their wildest moments had predicted. Josane, who used to pose for the late Moise Kisling, famed painter of sensuous nudes, said she met Marlon in New York last February, when she was a governess (piano and French lessons) in a psychiatrist's family...
