SNAG: Orson Welles' Oscar for Citizen Kane Fetches $861K!
An anonymous bidder shelled out $861,000 for the Oscar that Orson Welles won for his original screenplay of Citizen Kane
in 1942. The golden statuette was auctioned off in Los Angeles
yesterday and attracted bidders from around the world, including
magician David Copperfield, who was ultimately outbid by the
unidentified winner, reports the AP. It's not an Oscar record: Michael Jackson once paid $1.5 million for the best-film award given to Gone With the Wind.
