This movie partly-written by, Directed and starring Orson Welles has for years now been heralded hands down as the greatest movie ever made. It is known for it's Cinematography. It's quite an interesting chronicling in flashbacks of William Randolph Hearst. Kane, the movies character is found dying and it is the duty of the detective to find out the meaning of his dying words "Rosebud".
Splendid cast of Humphrey Bogart and John Houston playing characters in search of real gold high in the Mountains in Mexico. The way their true characters are revealed while hiding out is quite chilling....
Splendid book, splendid movie. The movie brought the characters to a charming life that you could see as you read the very short book. The cast was one of the best ever formed and the acting on these difficult subjects was superb.
Jack Nicholson plays a highly intelligent Humphrey-like detective, sort of reminiscent of the Maltese Falcon. In Chinatown to investigate the death of a prominent man, he meets the wife of the man. It takes a lot to convince Jack's character that his perceptions mean nothing to the muscle behind the horrible secrets of the woman and that town.....
This movie, done in black and white except for a small part, is about Schiendler whose name has been placed on the Wall of the Righteous by the Jewish people. It's a disturbing look at the Holocaust and what one man tried to do in his own way to save lives....
