		<description><![CDATA[
Orson Welles&#8216; screenwriting Oscar for Citizen Kane, considered by some the greatest story ever told on film, is set to be auctioned by its current owner, the Los Angeles-based charity Dax Foundation, next December. 
Produced and directed by Welles, the 1941 classic also received nominations for best picture and best director, but lost in both instances to John Ford&#8217;s How Green Was My Valley. 
Welles and Herman J. Mankiewicz shared the screenplay Oscar for Citizen Kane, the story of a greedy tycoon &#8212; inspired by William Randolph Hearst &#8212; who discovers that money doesn&#8217;t bring happiness and that untalented mistresses shouldn&#8217;t be pushed to opera stardom. (Hearst&#8217;s mistress, however, was quite talented. Marion Davies was an excellent comedienne.)

Ruth Warrick, Charles Foster Kane&#8217;s wife in Orson Welles&#8216; 1941 classic Citizen Kane, died today of complications from pneumonia. She was 89.
Also in 1941, Warrick was Douglas Fairbanks, Jr&#8217;s leading lady in the period adventure The Corsican Brothers, but despite an auspicious beginning her film career didn&#8217;t go very far. 
In the following years, Warrick (born in St. Joseph, Missouri, on June 29, 1915) was cast in supporting roles in major productions or in leads in B fare, usually playing the hero&#8217;s or the second male lead&#8217;s wife. Among the most important of those were Norman Foster and (an uncredited) Orson Welles&#8217; Journey into Fear (1942), in which she plays hero Joseph Cotten&#8217;s wife &#8212; though the chief female role [...]]]></description>
