MANK, THE LEGEND Gary Oldman takes the lead in this Netflix film about old Hollywood based on the life of movie writer Herman J Mankiewicz, aka Mank.
Mank is the man who co-wrote Citizen Kane, which is considered by many to be one of the greatest movies ever made. Mank, the film, tells the tale of the down-on-his-luck writer’s life, between 1933 and 1940.
Using alcohol as a crutch, Mank, a former journalist, gets through each day either drunk or hungover and becomes acquainted with William Randolph Hearst (Charles Dance), one of the wealthiest men in America, and his mistress, Marion Davies (Amanda Seyfried).
