Not my style, but not a bad movie

Rating: Null/10 (5 December 2011)

Citizen Kane is a very well known movie. It is phenomenally directed. I never really got into the movie as much as others have. I didn't find it that interesting, although it was beautifully shot, I did not really like the plot. It just wasn't my style. But I did have a favorite part which was engaging. The scene where they Kane is out to eat with a big group of people and the dancers and the band came out. It was so out of the loop and not really expected in the film, which is why I liked it because it was so unexpected. My teacher pointed out that they had microphones that were in the ceiling, and you could hear the change in volume as the band would walk underneath the microphone and then walk away and it be suddenly different in volume. I found that to be very interesting. Not a bad movie, just not my style and not a favorite of mine.
