John Waters said to me, 'You realize you're the only person in your family who'll talk about this,' " Patricia Hearst said the other day from her car phone. Ms. Hearst was referring to "Citizen Kane," Orson Welles's 1941 classic film, which is about her grandfather, the newspaper publisher William Randolph Hearst. "It's a very biting portrait," Ms. Hearst said of the movie, "but I adore it." Tonight Ms. Hearst will introduce the film (along with its original trailer), which kicks off the Fourth Annual Bryant Park Summer Film Festival, sponsored by Home Box Office in the park at 42d Street and Avenue of the Americas. It will be the first of 10 films on Monday nights at sunset.

When I first learned of the kidnapping, I remembered that as a young girl, I often had dreams of being kidnapped and falling in love with one of my captors. I also remembered Temple Drake, the heroine of William Faulkner's "Sanctuary," who chose to live with her abductor, a hood named Popeye, in a Memphis whor*house before being "saved" and returned to a decaying social order.

The couple who helped Patricia Hearst elude capture after her abduction by the Symbionese Liberation Army, a radical group, have won $30,000 out of court in a libel suit against her. The suit, filed by Jack and Micki Scott, was filed two years ago after the publication of her book, ''Every Secret Thing,'' and was settled two weeks ago, according to papers on file in San Mateo County Superior Court. Mr. Scott, a Berkeley, Calif., sports and health writer, said the newspaper heiress falsely depicted him in her book as operating an underground railroad for radical fugitives.
