Susan Alexander Kane's disastrous debut in the opera world is accompanied by a libretto written not by the film's composer, Bernard Herrmann, but by producer John Houseman. According to Houseman, Herrmann had decided not to use a scene from a standard opera but to create one on his own. He decided that it should be a French opera and asked Houseman to write it. Houseman hurriedly assembled a mixed bag from Racine's "Athalie", "Phèdre" and others. It did not make any sense. As lip-synced by Dorothy Comingore, the opera is barely intelligible, but Orson Welles built one of the film's most visually striking sequences.
