Film-making at it's best

Rating: 9/10 (9 March 2005)

Love the aspect that you are memorized with the storyline. Only reason I didn't give it a 10 was some movies I just enjoyed more. They weren't better made but just more enjoyable. His mastery of the story is quite evident by his use of various techniques of story telling. you don't know exactly how he intends to direct us but you sure want to go there. When he says Rosebud, you are forever hooked on what the notion that you are guessing on how he will lead us and why he said Rosebud in the first place. The story is so engrossing and it does become timeless for all generations. I love the feel and texture of this film. I wish some film producers would learn that the price of the film doesn't make it better but on how you convey your idea's. Orsen Welles has such a great mastery of what needs to be said in a story - Bottom line, it a great movie.
