Citizen Kane!!!

I am posting about my thoughts and feelings after watching Citizen Kane in class. I started out thinking it was going to be boring and dull because it was in black and white, because normally i don't watch many old movies. But right from the opening scene i was intrigued by the great acting, editing, and plot in Citizen Kane. It was really cool to see how a movie could still be great even without all the special effects and action sequences. Also, i thought Orson Wells did a amazing job at writing, and playing the role of Kane. The audience can tell that he put alot of time into developing the characters and plot throughout the movie. The only thing i didn't like about the movie was that to me, it was kind of hard to relate to and it dragged on a little bit too long. but that was probably just the difference in time periods. but overall i thought it was a pretty good movie. im still not really into black and white movies, but Citizen Kane definitely changed my perspective on them!
