The way I see it, Citizen Kane just doesn’t have enough depth, width and appeal to provide the grounds for “geeking out over” it. It is just a boring snobbish film.
I found it pretty riveting the first time I saw it. The lack of conversation about it by modern filmgoers says more about them than the movie. Or it could be that it’s been talked about to death already.
I like lasers and lightsabers and trench runs, but I also like thinking sometimes, too.
