BBC iPlayer: 'Citizen Kane' (1941)

on Tuesday, May 03, 2011
Words: Saam Das


SYNOPSIS: "A landmark in the history of cinema, telling the story of newspaper magnate Charles Foster Kane in a series of flashbacks. Starring Orson Welles." (bbc.co.uk)


I don't think I really have to elaborate on why it's worth watching 'Citizen Kane' but I do find the swell of universal acclaim in the film and televisual worlds quite curious. Music always seems to be much more subjective but I'm not really sure why that is.

That's something to ponder for another time so for now, experience what is widely considered as one of the greatest films ever made.

Watch 'Citizen Kane' on BBC iPlayer until 22:59, Tuesday 10 May '11.
