Editorial Review: Product Description: About an influential and ruthless publishing tycoon shines in a magnificient 60th-anniversary digital transfer with revitalized digital audio. Studio: Warner Home Video Release Date: 02/04/2003 Run time: 119 minutes Rating: Pg Amazon.com essential video: Arguably the greatest of American films, Orson Welles's 1941 masterpiece, made when he was only 26, still unfurls like a dream and carries the viewer along the mysterious currents of time and memory to reach a mature (if ambiguous) conclusion: people are the sum of their contradictions, and can't be known easily. Welles plays newspaper magnate Charles Foster Kane, taken from his mother as a boy and made the ward of a rich industrialist. The result is that every well-meaning or tyrannical or self-destructive move he makes for the rest of his life appears in some way to be a reaction to that deeply wounding event. Written by Welles and Herman J. Mankiewicz, and photographed by Gregg Toland, the film is the sum of Welles's awesome ambitions as an artist in Hollywood. He pushes the limits of then-available technology to create a true magic show, a visual and aural feast that almost seems to be rising up from a viewer's subconsciousness. As Kane, Welles even ushers in the influence of Bertolt Brecht on film acting. This is truly a one-of-a-kind work, and in many ways is still the most modern of modern films from the 20th century. --Tom Keogh Average Rating:
 Rating:  - GREAT SATISFACTION!I sent a review last week. What happened to it? I'll try again. I was very pleased to receive "Citizen Kane" BEFORE THE PREDICTED SHIPPING DATE. I ordered from Amazon because I didn't think it would be available here. But I saw it last week in a store for almost twice what I paid for it. Will certainly order from the seller next time. Shirley Rating: - Great--not the bestFirst, let me get one thing out of the way: Citizen Kane is not the greatest movie ever made. It is the safest choice for the best movie ever made based on who you're trying to kiss up to. The way the critics gush about this movie, you'd think Citizen Kane invented cinematography, nuance, good storytelling, etc. Whoever says that this movie is the greatest movie of all time has only seen fifteen movies. Check out Children Of Paradise, Scenes From a Marriage, Au hassard Balthasar, The Red Shoes, Rashoman, ... Read More Rating: - The Power of LossIt is a spooky night. Atmospheric dramatic music accompanies the camera to a heavily fenced perimeter. The heavy cast iron entry gate shows an ominous logo, a circle with a big K inside it, right next to it a sign saying "No Trespassing" and right then we know we will enter a domain, which is forbidden to anyone but the viewer. In the far distance in the darkness we notice a single lonely light coming from a gigantic mansion, but we still have quite a way to go and so we continue our ghostly journey across ...

I used both discs in my Mass Comm class to show graphically the power of the press and films. Highly recommended. Browse for similar items by category:
