A strong landmark film of great importance

Rating: Null/10 (29 March 2002)

If not for Orson Welles' brilliant creation, CITIZEN KANE, the stan- dards for great film-making would not exist today. The movie was clearly ahead of its time, thanks to Welles' revolutionary style of direction. The intricately detailed scenes, the unique camera angles, the lighting, etc, all that was new to audiences. The acting is very exceptionally as well, as Welles portrays Charles Foster Kane, the man whose simple childhood quickly dashes away when he gets a taste for the high life, which ends with his last breath proclaiming his one true happy moment.
