Beyond the cult, the myth

“Verified Purchase

The natural question ,we have to wonder about when watching this film, in its new splendor after restoration, is whether Orson Welles did not try to make a movie about himself. He sure did. I would even say it is a posthumous autobiography in prospective expectation. It is an American film about America and the Americans. The grandiose grandeur of those who are dreaming America into being and the petty narrow-mindedness of those who are only defending their own interests. Which tribe is most important? No one can know. The dreamers get isolated and lonely, at times in the golden heart of wealth and money. The self-centered ones just cut the cake and are very careful to give a very thin slice to others and an enormous slice to themselves. Then they all die sooner” read more

"25.5. Tallenne Uusintakatselu. Kameratyö on mestariluokkaa ja Kane on pidettävänä egomaanikkomulkkuna periaatteessa hyvinkin kiinnostava ja tutkiskelua ansaitseva hahmo, mutta tarina ei oikein jaksa enää joinkuin tuttuna kiinnostaa riittävällä tasolla. Se ei ole kaksituntiselle tarinavetoiselle elokuvalle ihan hyvä juttu. Visuaalista puolta kyllä jaksaa ihailla koko keston edestä."
