Although, in [[RKO 281]], a 1999 film that was a fictionalized 
account of the creation of Citizen Kane, Welles is shown yelling the 
spoiler about "Rosebud" to the crowd waiting in the theater lobby 
before the start of an opening-night showing, just for the heck of 
it.  (At that point he's pretty frustrated with the whole movie 
business, after all the manipulations to try to suppress his film.)
