I couldn´t realize the magnitude of this movie when I seen it for the first time, but my childish mind got all excited by the perspective of solving the puzzle and finding the real meaning of Rosebud.
Soon enough I watched it again and I got amazed by the way Welles contructs Kane´s personality in front of our eyes. By the flashbacks it´s possible to see how Kane had the world at his feet but couldn´t have one thing back: his childhood.
It´s a very touching story especially when Kane locks himself from the exterior world in Xanadu. I think it teaches a great moral lesson of how money can´t bring hapiness. A must see, the classic of the classics.
