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.
