Citizen Kane

Rating: 8/10 (17 April 2020)

How does life find what it wants to do and should do? Or how to find faith? How did Kane decide to use the newspaper's voice, influence the current situation, and even implement reforms? I only saw the result, maybe it was just an accidental thought. Everyone is looking for what they want to do, even if they fail, there is no regret to struggle for this in life.
Maybe if it were n't for his mother to make that calm and heart-warming decision, there might not be this legend at all. Some people say that he can make these achievements, which is closely related to him being in the upper class of society, standing high and looking far, and at the same time he can do things to defend the rights of the people because he is not a rich second generation from the beginning There were poor parents who loved him. If he did not get rid of poverty, the "rose bud" would not become his missing heart fragment. He would have ordinary family feelings and ordinary small days, but there would also be missing, perhaps a dream that could not be approached, maybe not Love and so on. Life is inevitably lost or unavailable, wealth is rich and sad, poverty is troubled by poverty, his mother chooses the first one for him, what has happened to other people 's reproach or praise, what does it matter Just wish.
When Kane saw Susan as a typical American, he also wanted to examine whether he was a typical Chinese citizen. How typical? A question that cannot be solved by oneself now. Speaking back to Kane, he found Susan 's small wish and tried to help her realize her wish. Unexpectedly, this "extramarital love" was shaken out. Was it really "extramarital love"? Li no longer has love, but for Susan, this simple and kind girl, not to mention love, may just be interested, devoted, and helping her, but this news will hurt Susan, so he Divorce and marry her can save her, but the strong noble wife does not need his rescue. Kane, who controls the media, was defeated by the media. This scandal trapped Kane's image of betrayal, lost the support of voters, failed to run for governor, and ended his political career. The people could not tolerate sand. They only wanted a governor with a good background, and Kane was hit hard when he ignored the post-service reforms proposed by Kane. After remarriage, Susan 's selfless help changed Susan 's nature, and she no longer slowly and steadily improved her. For her own reputation, she should be transformed into an opera actress as soon as possible, proving that he can really help Susan Dreaming, helping the American people dream, prove that he is still the original Kane.
As for Susan who said she never wanted to be an actress in an opera, this was all Kane let do, but did she never want to sing? I still remember her helpless and lonely expression when she talked about her mother 's talent for singing, whether it 's Kane or us outside the film, it 's easy to read her desire to sing, and Kane as a helper The people who dreamed of her, supported her, trusted her, nurtured her, and maybe following the original path of Kane, she could be successful in small circles, and they were all happy. However, life is full of accidents. The scandal came out. This secretly supported move had to be put on the table for everyone to entertain. Kane accelerated the star-making plan, but Kane did not find out that she could no longer fulfill her dream Persevere in the brigade.
Perhaps Kane 's attitude towards the American people was reflected in his attitude towards Susan. When he saw the people 's small wishes and set about to realize it, he even took the responsibility in the first person, "I". At first, the people faced this The big rich man who stood in his camp was rejoiced by it. The people (Susan) could not keep up with the pace. He walked too fast. The people (Susan) would rather stay in the original comfort zone than to take the wind. Rain. The turbulent situation in the process of rewriting the pattern will blind the eyes of the people, thinking that it is not as good as the original stable life. Adding a fire to the key point can continue to change, and pouring a pot of cold water can make the people quickly retract the comfort zone. The scandal is the cold water that wiped out the fire of trust.
A stable family environment is so important for gaining the trust of the people. Kane may want to recreate this appearance after remarriage, but fails in the face of Susan 's fragility. Friends and people do not understand why he must let If the new wife succeeds, you can see that Susan will not succeed. Only Kane is confused and may not be clear. It may seem to him that helping Susan succeed will regain his prestige and at the same time prove that he will also succeed. When friend Li Rand could not bear to be caught between the false comment and the broken relationship of the friend, Kane let go of the friend's hand, which was good for both parties.
Kane was unknown and unknown, is he a hero? Is the situation creating a hero or is the hero born in the situation? He played brilliantly in the role of media tycoon, but he was defeated in the role of politician. How would he evaluate his life, but realize the dream for the subject but ignore the subject itself? Never regret it?
