It got to the end and we both looked at each other. “Huh? That's it!? I don't get it.”
Later I learned (on FR) that it is such a “great” film due to the cinematography and use of black and white or something. I never bothered trying to watch it again to see what they were talking about.
Citizen Kane used many techniques for the first time that became standard stuff for filming later.
So many movies... Dr. Zhivago. Roman Holiday. Impossible to choose.
Like picking the best guitarist. (Hint: Tommy Emmanual)
i actually think older movies are the greatest....ive tried at least 10 times to watch Citizen Kane...i simply cant make it thru. It makes zero sense...
