The one and only

Rating: 10/10 (21 March 2002)

Perfection is not of this world but lets say that 10 does not represent ultimate perfection but ultra achievement for an artist that did mastered his art at a very young age, the mark of genius. Citizen Kane is a masterpiece and you can't seriously considered yourself a film enthusiast (babelfish translation of "cinÃ©phile" :)) without going to the root of modern cinematography. What ? what am I saying ? Citizen Kane is better than Starwars ? YES FOOLS, IT IS ! Because it is not all about liking it or even having fun watching it (what am I saying?)! We are talking about art, and the benefit that movie was able to provide to a relatively new art is tremendous. We are talking about new ways to say things with images and sound, new techniques (special effects, and storytelling) and, above all, human aspects in the matter depicted. Citizen Kane is an important movie and without it they wouldn't be any Starwars. That's it.
