I don't get it.

Rating: Null/10 (27 March 2001)

Why has this movie become an icon? There is not one shred of humor for all of its innovative camera angles and "messages". It unfairly shreds the reputation of Marion Davies as much as it may parody Wm. R. Hearst. Ms Davies was able to do something that Welles has never been able to achieve as Director, writer or actor. And that is the most difficult of the performing arts. He has never made me laugh. When I watch Kane, and I have seen it many times, because Im trying to understand what other see that I don't. Like Walt Whitman's poetry. I don't get it!
