Known for the better part of its 82 years as the greatest movie ever made, can Citizen Kane still live up its reputation with today’s generation? Everything revolutionary about the film - its deep-focus cinematography, experimental editing, innovative sound design and non-linear storytelling - has all been imitated hundreds of times. So is this movie only great because it was ahead of its time, or does it still shine brightly in its own right? And is the character of Charles Foster Kane just tied to the faded memory of legendary news mogul William Randolph Hearst, or is he newly relevant in the age of Citizens Murdoch and Trump? Join our panel of young film lovers as they bring fresh eyes to this classic. What will they rediscover in Citizen Kane, and what new revelations might they offer from their generation’s perspective?
