About this product

Product Information

CITIZEN KANE is Orson Welles's greatest achievement--and a landmark of cinema history. The story charts the rise and fall of a newspaper publisher whose wealth and power ultimately isolates him in his castle-like refuge. The film's protagonist, Charles Foster Kane, was based on a composite of Howard Hughes and William Randolph Hearst--so much so that Hearst tried to have the film suppressed. Every aspect of the production marked an advance in film language: the deep focus and deeply shadowed cinematography (from Gregg Toland); the discontinuous narrative, relying heavily on flashbacks and newsreel footage (propelled by a script largely written by Herman L. Mankiewicz); the innovative use of sound and score (sound by Bailey Fesler and James G. Stewart, music composed and conducted by Bernard Herrmann); and the ensemble acting forged in the fires of Welles's Mercury Theatre (featuring the film debuts of, among others, Joseph Cotten, Everett Sloane, and Agnes Moorehead). Every moment of the film, every shot, has been choreographed to perfection. The film is essential viewing, quite possibly the greatest film ever made and, along with THE BIRTH OF A NATION, certainly the most influential.

As described, original packaging, good shipping, though it seems the ravages of time have left the plastic cracked on this one, just like the one I was hoping to replace. Cracks were hidden from view, not the seller’s fault.

  • Citizen Kane-1941

    I decided to purchase 'Kane', because it is a classic....not just because every- body SAYS it is. It was a pleasant surprise to find some directors' comments about the movie included in the version I got. (TCM; Turner Classic Movies series ) Usually, you only get 'special features' like this on DVD, not VHS video. It was not colorized, but left in glorious black'n'white. (although, honestly, I do wonder how it would play in color ??) The movie itself I'd seen before, but a) wanted to see it again, & b) wanted to own it for my personal collection. This is a movie that so dynamically spans time and space with an excellent story, it can be viewed many times over without a 'monotony-confrontation'.
