Reviews
"This revised and updated edition has been enlarged to include a new preface, new photos, and a discussion of Welles's second feature, The Magnificent Ambersons. . . . Considering Kane's importance to American film, this is essential for all movie collections." * Library Journal *
"Carringer has had access to previously inaccessible studio records, resulting in an unprecedentedly documented account of the collaborative creation of Kane; Carringer has also interviewed numerous participants in the film's making, including Welles himself. The result is not only new knowledge about Kane, but a new understanding about how films were made in the studio system." * Film Quarterly *
"A meticulous technical study . . . not only reminds us of why we want to read about Welles in the first place, but comes closer to the core of the man than [biographies of Welles]." * Village Voice *
