Orson Welles' masterwork remains grand entertainment, sharply acted and directed with inspired visual flair.

Chronicling the stormy life of an influential publishing tycoon, this Academy Award winner is rooted in themes of power, corruption, vanity—the American Dream lost in the mystery of a dying man’s last word: “Rosebud.” A classic to this day, Citizen Kane has only grown in stature since its release—although, despite much controversy, it wasn't exactly ignored at the time of its 1941 premiere, garnering eight additional Oscar nominations, including Best Picture.
