so Orson Welles grand-daughter has won the right to auction off the 'best screenplay' oscar won by Welles for Citizen Kane.... its certainly something I wouldnt mind owning, although I dont think I could afford it.... how much would you say it would go for, if it does go up for sale?? A couple of million $'s perhaps? Flogen

Even if I was the naive, impulsive, rich guy I wish I was and bought the thing, I'd have to get an engraver to change the name on it.

OR!

I could change my name to Orson Welles.

But then I'd have to worry aboot polishing my Oscar. Hehe.

Yea, she is selling it, as he won it prior to the rule brought in saying that you could only sell it back to the oscars for 1 dollar.
