It is said that this is the most classic movie in history, and some people say it is boring, so I have neither high nor low expectations for it, which also creates a necessary objective mood for watching the movie. And after reading it almost in one go, I wondered why some people said they couldn't watch it, and some people said they couldn't see anything good. I think everyone has a somewhat different understanding of Kane, who is so confident, so pitiful, who has everything until he loses everything, whether he thinks of Freud, the reality, or even himself Well, this is the legendary power of a legendary person, and this also makes a legendary film.
This is definitely a good movie. In terms of plot, it is much more compact and exciting than the current Japanese and Korean dramas. In terms of context, it respects the audience's IQ more than some popular petty-bourgeois literary films, with clear levels. The structure is clear, just like an article with a total score, not forgetting the beginning and end, not forgetting the beginning and the end; the suspense of Rose Bud runs through the whole, and the mystery of the last shot is not revealed. It engulfs you whole and makes people feel mixed feelings. Of course, there are many originality and breakthroughs analyzed from a professional perspective that my elm head can't bear. Please refer to other film reviews.
In short, to be able to tell a heroic biography so complete, refined, delicate and vivid, making people feel both joy and sorrow, God knows how difficult it is. Even if you don't say it is a work of genius, a stroke of genius, you can see the hard work of the director and actors. Although it can't be said to be the best movie in my mind, it can also be called one of the best. An old film older than me, but still in line with or even beyond the current aesthetic tastes, without the slightest outdated, outdated atmosphere, the so-called "always imitated, never surpassed". In contrast, many movies today have not only failed to go far, but have regressed a lot. Not only have they lost the overall beauty of the year, they are also rough, kitsch, and IQ insulting commercial products. Don't be fooled by the audience. Although disappointed and helpless, people will still pinch their noses and watch the farce.
Closer to home, there are too many people complimenting Cain, and I will not add the icing on the cake. What's interesting is that after reading Kane's story, I can't help but think of Agatha's "Murder on a Cliff". Is it because my imagination is too rich? A certain nerve has always felt that they are somewhat similar, especially "Rosebud" and "Why didn't they invite Evans?", also the last words of important people who died in the first act, equally inexplicable, but also the same. The clues that run through it are also involved in many unexpected stories, such as what Truman said when he saw his dead and living father many years later, it was a crack in the fish tank. In the end, it was like "the crowd searched for him for thousands of times, and when I looked back, the man was in the dim light", as if it was an answer that could be picked up by turning around. The world is so small sometimes, and so is the human heart.
"I have an idea about Evans. I don't think Evans matters at all, and while he may be a starting point, he probably isn't. Around the tomb of his beloved, a splendid palace or a temple was built. When it was completed, there was only one small landscape that was so out of tune with the environment that the prince said: 'Tear it down.' Actually that landscape was the tomb.
" Replacing "Evans" with "Rosebud" here is the best explanation for this riddle.
