The film"s page
"Rosebud" sera le dernier mot de Charles Foster Kane, magnat de la presse qui vient de rendre son dernier souffle dans son château de Xanadu. Le journaliste Jerry Thompson est engagé pour reconstituer la biographie du milliardaire et surtout trouver la signification de ce mystérieux "Rosebud".
Notes : Citizen Kane est la première réalisation d’Orson Welles, alors âgé de 25 ans. Inspiré de la vie du magnat de la presse William Randolph Hearst, Citizen Kane trouve également un écho dans la vie de son réalisateur. Orphelin dès l’âge de 6 ans, Welles se retrouva lui aussi héritier d’une immense fortune. Il fut toute sa vie torturé par un sentiment de culpabilité qui donnera d’ailleurs naissance à un autre de ses chefs d’œuvre : Le Procès.
