Document Summary
Citizen kane (1941: very influential movie/filmmakers thought it was greatest thing. = high contrast lighting lot ppl watching citizen kane and wanting to make movies like it) It didn"t become a huge hit at the time bc it was closely modelled on a real person who declared war on the film and got it banned etc. Hes first getting married 20 years of a marriage compacted into 5 minutes Deeply passionate in love in beginning and each clip is 2-3 years and they get used to one another and the marriage turns sour/hostile in passive aggressive way. They become openly hostile and the final scene they are silent. Beginning are next to each other and the end they are sitting farther. Love music then playful music and becomes more mensicing and awaytable gets bigger Entire thing is them sitting at a table becomes angry and then in final scene theres cold deattached music as camera goes away from them marriage.
