#127 - Citizen Kane - An Exploration of its Artistry and Impact

The Cinedicate: Film & TV Podcast

Today, we are delving into the cinematic masterpiece that is Citizen Kane. This iconic film has become a topic of conversation everywhere, and we are thrilled to explore its artistry and impact. From its stunning visuals to its thought-provoking themes, Citizen Kane captivates viewers and stands as a testament to the artistic abilities of its director. In this post, we will discuss the impressions and misconceptions surrounding the film, as well as its portrayal of fame, human nature, and the American Dream. Join us as we unravel the layers of this timeless classic and appreciate its enduring influence on the world of cinema.

So, what is the reality of the American Dream? It's not about accumulating wealth or reaching the peak of success. Instead, it's about being content with ourselves and our surroundings, finding inner peace, and living a life with less stress. This idea of the true American Dream extends beyond humans to all living organisms. From bacteria to humans, the universal dream is to live a life with less stress and struggle. Unfortunately, Kane only realizes this truth when his life starts falling apart. It's almost depressing that the moments he stops lying to himself and acknowledges the true dream, it becomes the downfall of his life. Perhaps if he had embraced this reality earlier, his journey would have been different.
