What Film Making is Meant to Be

Rating: Null/10 (31 October 2004)

I hate to hear people say that this movie is boring or that it isn't as great as everybody thinks. The fact of the matter is that this is a film made by following all the rules of film making. Not only is the acting superb, but each shot is carefully planned out. Character position and lighting goes from beyond showing peole what the film makers were able to do and instead shows deeper meanings. Height and screen position are used to dictate dominance etc...Welles was a genius who was able to work with people that helped to take the way he saw something in his mind and make it reality. Tolland's cinematography is unbelievable and the use of deep focus lighting is very effective. All of the actors give amazing performances especially Welles and Cotten. It should not be missed and it truly is the greatest movie of all time.
