This movie is one of the peaks of cinematography, a brilliant creation, a masterpiece beyond human understanding. In my list, this movie shares the first place with Godfather I, and I still do not love Citizen Kane as much as I do Godfather I, but then again, I love them on different levels. I am a fan of Godfather I. I know every little bit of trivia, I'm a fan of each actor, I have the three movies of VHS in a special version with interviews with the cast and crew and the such. Citizen Kane is just, in my book, a brilliant masterpiece that I watch whenever I get the chance. If you haven't seen it yet, you are missing half of motion picture history. If you have seen it, watch it again for you will only enjoy it more the other time. Welles's best work, topping The Magnificent Ambersons in my book, and a sheer piece of genius that will never be forgotten. If anyone will ever ask me to make a time capsule (and they do it every other day, of course), two ingredients inside will definetely be videos of Godfather I and Citizen Kane. A movie that has been considered a classic for almost 60 years and I'm certain it will last for another 60 (and more).
