Citizen Kane

Rating: Null/10 (5 March 2010)

In 1941 the film Citizen Kane was released. A Black and white film that worth seeing. I really enjoyed this film. The cinematography of the film is outstanding. The use of lighting the many scenes was amazing. What I really like about this film was the narrative structure of the film. I found it to be different than the usually straight forward narrative used by most films. The film begins with the death of old man Kane. Before he passes on he mumbles the words Rosebud. The film becomes center upon the meaning of this word for Kane. I like how viewers are giving incite to Kane's life though a series of flashbacks of his life. I like how the story of his life is told after his death. It leaves little confusion to the viewers. When the films finish then we begin to understand the real Kane. If you want to see a film that uses incredible camera work I would highly recommend Citizen Kane.
