Ive been looking at the the best voted films of all time with Citezen Kane topping the vote all the time, followed by the first two Godfather films, Shclindlers List, The Sawshank Redemption and Vertigo.

Is it wrong to say that i didnt get what was so good about Citezen Kane??
And I LoveDC, urmm its not impossible, they can do a remake with different actors. There were three other Titanic movied that were out before the 1997 one, they just werent popular. The ship all sank in them ones.

You have to think of Citizen Kane in terms of the history of cinema, and how Welles created so many new ways of expression, utilising every known method of lighting, cinematography etc, as well as introducing new ways of filming shots. It really was ground breaking for it's time.

True, I was kind of focussing on the actual narrative, but obviously I didnt know about how big it was back then and that they were trying different methods on doing things.

I should actually be looking at stuff like that now, Im a Film Student now so i need to look at all aspects of films such as cinematograpghy, sound and lighting. But as i saw it years ago, I didnt know to look out for that. Talking about cinematograpghy, I got a B talking about the use of cinamatograpghy in the film "Leon".... ohh yeah

Besson's films have a hypnotic effect on me, and that could be do to with his upbringing and love for the sea. There's a beautiful flow to his work, like the ebb and flow water. Watch the Big Blue and you'll see how amazing the man is at shooting in a particular style.

No, the narrative for Cane was fairly groundbreaking too. Welles had never worked on a film prior to this .... he came from a background of theatre.

I'd probably need to re-watch it then. Im sure we will be studying it for my 2nd year in college, I heard thats what this years 2nd year students are doing.

Im quite interested in Gus Van Sant, he is a brilliant director.

One film I want to see.... Teeth.

it sounds like the worst storyline someone can think of, disturbing and laughable at the same time.
