Citizen Kane

SOME CALLED HIM A HERO...OTHERS CALLED HIM A HEEL.

Newspaper magnate Charles Foster Kane is taken from his mother as a boy and made the ward of a rich industrialist. As a result, every well-meaning, 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.

    A decent watch, though the pacing felt a bit slow in the middle. The cinematography was great, though.
