Rosebud

Welles claimed that the Rosebud motif was merely a plot gimmick, intended to hook the audience on a dramatic question that's really a wild goose chase. But the gimmick works. Like the hopeful reporter, we too think that Rosebud will unlock Kane's ambiguous personality. Without this gimmick, the story would have remained rambling and unfocused. The search for the meaning of Rosebud shapes the narrative, providing it with a forward thrust, with a dramatic question we all want answered. This is what foreign critics mean by the American genius for storytelling.

The script of the film is really amazing, I want to read the original script. The shooting technique is also clever, and the use of depth of field shooting is very decent. My personal favorite scene is the short breakfast scene between Kane and his first wife, which lasted 9 years, and the expressions and expressions are wonderful. Undoubtedly this is a masterpiece, especially from the literary point of view that I pay most attention to.

Hey, this is the classic movie history that is always on hold: too heavy, too much sigh, the movie itself has to stand back. Orson Welles still had an immature face at that time! Listening to his radio work, watching his first short film, and watching this again, what appeared in front of me was not a god, but a young man who required creativity and thinking in everything he did and would actively seek opportunities to realize his creativity. .
