CITIZEN
KANE
| I can't even remember how many times I've
seen Citizen Kane, I could almost recite the dialogue from
the screenplay by Herman J. Mankiewicz and Orson Welles.
It broke ground in story telling and the deep focus cinematography
of Gregg Toland. It is a must see for anyone who loves film
and filmmaking. The soundtrack by Bernard Hermann is also
superb. Disputed to be about the newspaper baron William
Randolph Hearst, it is amazing that it was even released
since Hearst did all he could to stifle it. But, probably
the most fantastic thing about Citizen Kane for me, is that
Orson Welles was only 25 years old when he made it; he was
truly a genius. |
