Citizen Kane

the last time i watched this was for a film class i took on zoom during covid and it was awesome then. seeing it in a theatre years later was so special. i love this movie, which is not a new or novel thing but it bears repeating. i love all of the models that are used to show xanadu and the pile and piles of things that kane has. i also said this in my review of sahib bibi aur galum, but directors working in black and white are ARTISTS!!!!! the way faces are obscured and the lighting!! it's a thing of beauty. and even knowing the end it's still a gut punch. absolutely superb.
