Even people who have never seen Citizen Kane know it's the greatest film of all time. Orson Welles' debut has become an undisputed cultural benchmark the celluloid equivalent of War And Peace, the Mona Lisa, Hamlet, Moonlight Sonata, or Sergeant Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band (the Beatles album, not the Bee Gees movie). Orson Welles directorial debut (he was only 25!) is the story of newspaper tycoon Charles Foster Kane and the reporter who tries to piece together the meaning of his last word, Rosebud. With Orson Welles, Joseph Cotten, Agnes Moorehead, Dorothy Comingore, Everett Sloane, Paul Stewart; cinematography by Gregg Toland, script by Welles and Herman Mankiewicz.
