Practically invented the noir genre with Citizen Kane

He doesn't do anything?
Citizen Kane was a watershead moment for motion pictures. It's not that it pioneered many of the classic film techniques we all take for granted today, it's more that the film featured so many of those budding techniques, all encompassed up in a good story.
Basically you could divide movies into pre-citizen kane and post-citizen kane because Kane changed the way movies were made.

This is what every google result says. Can you get into some specifics and explain in more detail? Camera movements, changes in framing, composition, editing etc...
I just watched a lot of pre citizen kane movies and really I don't see any difference.

No clue, because i've never watched a movie before KC, i just trust what people have to say on the subject. It could be that it's overly credited with "creating modern movies" but i haven't looked into it.
