He moves into the paper's offices and with the help of his best friend, Jedidiah Leland, who acts as the drama critic, turns it into a lively, muckraking publication, which attacks slum landlords, swindlers and big business. When Kane turns twenty-five, he assumes control of the world's sixth largest private fortune, and while professing disinterest in most of his holdings, writes Thatcher that he intends to run The Inquirer, a small, New York newspaper acquired through a foreclosure. Despite the boy's protests, he is sent away to live with Thatcher. Kane hands over management of the mine's returns to Thatcher, against her husband's wishes, then grants the financier guardianship over her son. As young Charlie plays outside with his sled, Mrs. Learning that she has become wealthy from mining shares left her by a former boarder, she is determined that her son will be reared and educated in the East. Next, Thompson reads the unpublished memoirs of Wall Street financier Walter Parks Thatcher, Kane's guardian and trustee of the mining fortune left to Kane by his mother: Thatcher first meets young Kane in 1871 at his mother's Colorado boardinghouse. After the drunken Susan orders Thompson to leave, the accommodating bartender reports her claim that she had never heard of Rosebud. Thompson first approaches Kane's second wife, singer Susan Alexander, in the Atlantic City nightclub where she now performs. JERRY BELSON, who wrote and directed ''Surrender,'' almost certainly has a better idea of what this film is about than any audience will.Seventy-year-old newspaper tycoon Charles Foster Kane dies in his palatial Florida home, Xanadu, after uttering the single word “Rosebud.” While watching a newsreel summarizing the years during which Kane built a dying newspaper into a major empire, married and divorced twice, ran unsuccessfully for governor and saw the collapse of his newspaper empire during the Depression, an editor decides they have not captured the essence of the controversial newspaperman and assigns reporter Jerry Thompson to discover the meaning of Kane's last word. It starts out as a satire about love and money, with Michael Caine as an unlucky-in-love celebrity author who's paying alimony and palimony too. But it then develops into a too-cute romance centering on Sally Field, who fends off her rival suitors with a snappiness Doris Day would envy. Miss Field is spunky, all right, but she's always better in more serious roles, ones that present fewer opportunities for the kind of bottom-wriggling and eye-rolling that she does here. The production notes describe the film as ''semi-autobiographical'' and quote Mr. Story: The Surrender is a romantic erotic film based on the novel The.

So perhaps he, like Sean Stein, the best-selling author played by Michael Caine, attended a party at which terrorists invaded, forced the guests to strip and then tied them together in pairs, which is how Mr. sexploitation film, sexy and ambiguous ending films with plots about female nudity. Caine and Miss Field get acquainted in the movie. If it really happened, then it was undoubtedly less strange in real life than it is on the screen. Caine's Sean, a wealthy man badly victimized by women, has soon devised an elaborate plot to keep Miss Field's Daisy from knowing that he has money. ''Surrender,'' which opens today at the Criterion Center and other theaters, seesaws aimlessly as it plays out this triangular romance, pausing every now and then to work an element of comic avarice into the proceedings.
By the time Daisy has won the lottery at Lake Tahoe and crawled into bed under a covering of $5 bills, the story threatens to become truly bizarre. Belson's style is amiable, if sloppy - the film has been very unattractively shot - and it's certainly painless. Among the film's better elements are supporting performances by Peter Boyle, as a lawyer who wears quite a remarkable hairpiece for his courtroom appearances, and Julie Kavner, who's the ideal actress for any film requiring a big-hearted, wisecracking best friend. ''Surrender'' is rated PG (''Parental Guidance Suggested'').
