"Citizen Kane" offers much in the details, but I wonder what's the basic attraction to it? that's my question to both of you: what makes you want to watch the next scene? what are you looking for? what do you want to find out?
I was about eleven or twelve when I first saw "Citizen Kane". Perhaps that is too young to fully understand the movie BUT I do know I was intrigued by the idea of going back to find out the significance of a dying man's word. The story, going backwards, was done in a stylish manner and that is enough for me.
