Previous page        Return to Catalog        Next page

    In the history of film, there are always some films that are considered classics.  Since the invention of film, countless films have been produced, many of which can become classics, but if they can be regarded as "great" films, obviously there are far fewer.  The three words "the greatest" represent the supreme glory.  From the history of film, there is only one movie that can be matched with these three words, and that is the recognized "Citizen Kane".  This milestone in the history of film occupies a prominent position in any triumphal arch that praises film achievements. It is the "pioneering work" of film art and a turning point in the history of modern films and traditional films.  The reason why it is called "the greatest" is because this movie laid the foundation of modern movies in one fell swoop and became a watershed in the history of movie development. Therefore, it is known as the "monument of modern movies" and ranks on almost all movie rankings.  They are all of infinite glory and are regarded as the well-deserved champion and number one classic of the 'Top Ten Films in Film History'.  It can be said that any use of film techniques and film art in later generations started from this movie.  Since Orson Welles started filming "Citizen Kane," Victor has been extremely concerned.  Welles himself seems to be very high-profile on the surface, but he is a smart man. He will never be high-profile when he should be high-profile, and he will never be high-profile when he shouldn't. Therefore, there was very little news during the filming of "Citizen Kane"  Release it.  This movie is also the most ambitious movie that RKO Pictures has invested in since its inception.  Among the eight major Hollywood film companies, the three giants (MGM, Paramount, and RKO) are the most important in terms of funding.  RKO is the most powerful, and it is completely the representative of Wall Street giants in Hollywood.  Having money and endless money is the basis of RKO's excellence, but apart from money, RKO seems to have nothing.  Whether it is MGM or Paramount, although they are not as good as RKO in terms of funding, they have a long history and countless production classics.  So there is every reason to despise RKO.  In fact, Meyer and Chuuk had more than one success. This opponent was an "upstart". Although RKO expressed objections, it did not have any good works on hand, which seemed to be a scar.  Therefore, RKO, which was holding back its momentum, completely placed its bets on this Orson Welles movie this year.  Nearly 7 million investment.  It has also become a long-awaited work in the Hollywood film circle.  "Parker, prepare your dress and go drinking tonight." Victor smiled.  "The filming is so stressful, why do you still have to go out?!" A group of people, including Parker, objected.  ¡°You have to go, it¡¯s a classic.¡± Victor smiled.  ¡°What a bullshit classic.¡± Everyone laughed.  Laughing and laughing, I still went.  "Citizen Kane" premiere.  Selected to premiere at RKO's Holy Mountain Cinema in Los Angeles.  This cinema is adjacent to the Los Angeles Cinema, the first theater of Legendary Film Company, and one block away. It is the largest cinema in California built by RKO, and it is magnificent.  After getting out of the car, Victor raised his head and looked at the huge cinema in front of him.  It's really sad.  ¡°It¡¯s good to have money.¡± Victor smiled.  "Big, big enough. Victor, please take this thing away someday." Since becoming the general manager of the theater chain company, Leo has become a completely different person. He is serious and professional, and he only thinks about acquiring other people's theaters all day long.  .  ¡°It¡¯s all up to you, buddy.¡± Victor joked.  Everybody laughs.  RKO has always been generous, and the layout of the premiere made Victor feel inferior.  Entering the cinema, it was already packed with guests and celebrities.  Orson Welles, a man with oily hair and a pink face, holding a cigar in his mouth, was overjoyed when he saw Victor. He came over and gave Victor a bear hug: "Why are you here just now? I'm so anxious to wait for you."  It's ironic. There are so many great people, what does it matter if I'm missing a little guy?" Victor said.  ¡°They are all a bunch of idiots, no one likes them.¡± Orson Welles said as he secretly dragged Victor into a nearby room.  "What are you doing?" Victor asked.  "You'll know if you follow me. It's a good thing." Orson Welles smiled.  Victor was confused by this guy and had no choice but to walk into the box.  As soon as the door was opened, a white shadow flew up.  "Big guy!" Monroe's hands tightly hugged Victor's neck.  "You little troublemaker! You miss me so much!" Victor kissed Monroe hard on the face, which made Monroe giggle.  "How have you been during this time?" Victor asked, looking at Monroe, who had lost a lot of weight.    "It's good. I learned a lot and met a lot of new friends." Monroe got off Victor and held Victor's hand.  ¡°Oh.¡± Victor nodded, turned around, and found a beautiful figure sitting on the sofa in front of him.  That woman stunned Victor.  She is here too.  "Hello, Mr. Ferro." Joan Fontaine walked over with a smile.  "You two are welcome, we are all friends." Orson Welles opened a bottle of wine and pointed to the sofa opposite.  A group of people sat down.  "Your people beat up the young master of the Morgan consortium, haha." Orson Welles took a sip of wine and said, "But don't worry, I've already settled it for you." "Thank you." Victor was grateful.  Endless.  "Thank you first, there is more." Orson Welles waved his hand, and then pointed at Joan Fontaine: "Miss Fontaine and I hit it off, and she also participated in the filming of the movie this time. She is an amazing person.  Actor. She hasn't signed a contract yet, Victor, are you interested? " "Ah!" Victor's eyes widened when he heard this.  ¡°Ah what, why, not interested?¡± Orson Welles laughed.  The devil is not interested!  Legendary Pictures is currently short-staffed, especially actresses.  The male actors at least have Parker to support their appearance, but the female actors have none.  Joan Fontaine, Victor has always been making plans, but the last incident made him disgraced, so how can he still have hope?  "Miss Fontaine, you, you agree?" Victor stammered a little.  Joan Fontaine nodded: "I learned the whole thing from Mr. Wells. Mr. Ferro, I'm sorry that I wronged you last time. I'm very touched by your sincerity. Mr. Wells said:  You admire me so much, and after watching "No Country for Old Men," I was completely conquered by your talent. I think joining Legend Film Company may be a good choice for me. " Victor was overjoyed when he said this.  However, Victor soon felt that something was wrong.  "Orson, Miss Fontaine is such a great actress. Why didn't you recommend her to your employer, RKO, instead of recommending her to me?" Victor laughed.  "Hehehe, RKO?" Orson Welles narrowed his eyes: "It can't be a big deal." Oh?  Victor was stunned.  Where do you start talking about this?
