1. When we discussed the significance of Citizen Kane to cinema in class, we talked about a number of different ways Orson Wells filmed this movie. The camera angles were something never seen before, with focus shots that are still used in movies today.
2. I found an article on slate.com that is titled "The Mark of Kane" by Nigel Andrews. It talks about the things we discussed in class with the different camera angle and effects Wells put into his movie. It also talks about how the idea of the script and story were beyond it's years. This film changed the way people make movies based off the storytelling and plot of Citizen Kane.
3. This article relates to class because of our discussion on how great Citizen Kane was. The groundbreaking techniques that were used in shooting the film. Also how good the story was that made it still relevant for 70+years
4. I thought Citizen Kane was a great movie. The way Kane's character progressed throughout the film; from being young and full of life to old and fat, was incredible for it's time. I loved the dialogue in the film because it always kept me wondering what was going to happen next. I would definitely recommend people interested in movies see this film. While it can be slow at times, everything is methodically placed to make it one of the greatest masterpieces in film history.
