Subject:CINEMA MICRO Focus #1 - "Citizen Kane"

Published: Jan. 4, 2012, 5:57 p.m.

Welcome to Subject:CINEMA MICRO Focus! Each week, hosts TC Kirkham and Kim Brown will take on a single film and analyze it front to back, side to side, and everything in-between!

THIS WEEK: TC and Kim take on THE film - the movie that has been most often cited by movie critics and scholars as the greatest American film ever made - Orson Welles' "CITIZEN KANE"!

SCMF is part of the Popcorn N Roses family of shows, which includes our parent show, Subject:CINEMA, available every weekend at http://subjectcinema.com and  http://popcornnroses.com (and don't worry, they go to the same site....)

This week's show makes reference to a terrific article by Kolbrun Bjort Sigfusdottir where she explains why she feels that this week's subject is possibly the most overrated film of all time. We attempt to prove why she is incorrect about this notion. However, this is an excellent, well thought out article, and you can read it at http://filmophilia.com/2011/10/10/overrated-classics-citizen-kane/

We hope you'll be back every week - don't forget to subscribe to SC MICRO Focus and listen every week, a new show will be up every Wednesday evening!
