>le plot kid
But even on that matter, it's a spectacular screenplay. How does it let the film down?
>>69914171
The entire driving force of the narrative is about something nobody knows about. That's bad writing.

LMAO
>>69914520
People know his dying words despite nobody being present which set's off the entire narrative.
The oversight fucks the rest of the story.
>>69914600
This is a minimal thing; and essentially irrelevant to the quality of the film. Only >le plotholes seekers could care about it, and even then anyone willing can think of an exterior or meta explanation that answers the 'problem', if this hurts someone's autism.

OP here. Yes Citizen Kane if one of my most favorite films. I do understand the hate, it is only because it appeared multiple times as #1 film in different rankings. No one cares about #2 films like Bicycle Thieves or Battleship Potemkin or The Rules of the Game, but Citizen Kane gets all the hate. It is understandable. Please let me defend this film since I like it. It's not that much about plot or anything else, because if it were about plot I'd read books instead. It is that the cinematography is incredible (shadows and mirrors), also very inventive, but I won't count all the things there are too many, like the fact they used fake ceilings to hide recording devices above it and shoot the scenes with ceilings. Yes currently it's not a problem and we have CGI wherever we need it, but it's a gem from 1941 and I like it.

>anyone willing can think of an exterior or meta explanation that answers the 'problem'
Which is bad writing, plain and simple.
This movie is praised as one of the greatest films of all time, yet has a horrible plot-hole at its core which negates the narrative.
>>69914994
Not at all. Plot-holes are only a care for plebs who have them as an accessible tool for 'criticism'.

You can't pass judgement with out criticisms anon.
You can enjoy it for all it's worth but when you start to spout garbage and rank things, you're attempting to impose a validity to your arguments and demean those that disagree with you.
>>69914994
literally pleb: the post. how can you not understand that normal (not youtube) critics are praising films NOT for a fucking plot. it's not literature, it's cinema. films are getting praised for directing and cinematographic work.
>>69915174
>you're attempting to impose a validity to your arguments and demean those that disagree with you.
Yes
>>69915285
Film is a combination of all those elements and more.
If all you care about is cinematography and directing, you're a bigger pleb and pretentious cunt than you originally came across as and my advice still stands, kill yourself.

Ok now imagine, one critic likes love stories and will praise all love films, another one lives space and will prase interstellar star wars etc what will we have in the end? on the other hand everyone will agree how Kane was inventive in the approach of cinematographic work. plot is your personal business, you watch stories that you like, objective criticism should not imply on plot, or should but only slightly, if the plot disappoints obviously it can be noted. otherwise we would have fucking fight club or something at the top of every critic list
