This was brilliant and compelling from start to finish, The Plot was original, The Acting was superb, The Storytelling was brilliant, The Character development was great, The Script was intelligently written and the twist at the end was heartbreaking and unpredictable and it hasn't aged one bit even when it is almost 70 years old. This film is perfect and its quite funny to think that the film ranked #1 Greatest film of all time was written, directed and stared in by a 26 Year old. I won't give too much away but the film is about a newspaper tycoon (Orsen Welles) has just died and his death circumvented the globe and a group of news reporters attempt to find out what his final utterance meant: Rosebud. Its a really sad and beautiful film because despite Kane was shallow and narcissistic the end makes you feel bad for him. I Recommend this to anyone who enjoys classic and thought provoking films.
