It features a superb cast all the way around but I particularly like Joseph Cotten's acting in the role as Jedediah Leland. He's a great counterpoint to Kane. And his handing of the early scene (while in a nursing home) is superb. "...about that cigar..."

My favorite film. My Blu-ray arrived today. I’ve collected Kane on VHS, laserdisc, DVD and now Blu-ray. It never fails to fascinate me.

The film was way ahead of its time, in so many ways. Really ground-braking. But I can’t say I revisit it too terribly often, maybe once every ten years. I think “Magnificent Ambersons” might have been an even better film, had it not gotten choppy and uneven towards the end (apparently taken out of Welles’ hands, I think?). Something about the way it captures the passage of time really grabs me and resonates with me more than “Kane.” But “Kane” was the groundbraker.

I was forced to watch this film during an ‘arts appreciation class’ is college, and I thought the movie was crap.

I believe watching the proverbial ‘drying of paint’ would be far more entertaining.

Wow, 70 years already? The first time I saw Citizen Kane was at college during my film studies class which was part of my Spanish major course curriculum. I can’t believe it is 70 years old. Great film!

someone should write a sequel where Kane comes back from the dead as a zombie and call it Night of the Living Citizen Kane.

Better performances by Cotten and Welles in Carol Reed’s The Third Man.
