Top 5 – 2020 Movies I Wish I Saw On The Big Screen

Review – Mank

Review – Mank

          Mank tells the story screenwriter Herman Mankiewicz’s journey in writing 1941’s Citizen Kane, a film that many critics and scholars consider to be the greatest film of all-time.  But Mank isn’t a typical biopic about a man and his crowning career achievement.  This is a behind-the-curtain look at the Hollywood system in the 1930’s and 1940’s, the moguls who ran it, and a troubled man who just happened to write one of…
