  This Orson Welles film is often voted the best film ever made; it also revolutionized filmmaking technology. When reporter Jerry Thompson (William Alland) searches for the meaning of Charles Foster Kane's (Orson Welles) last dying word, "Rosebud," the life of the arrogant newspaper magnate is told through the reminiscences of those who knew him. An Oscar was awarded for Best Original Screenplay, and eight nominations were received–including Best Picture, Actor (Welles), and Director.
