About

Rent on Apple TV+ or buy on Apple TV+.

Newspaper magnate Charles Foster Kane is taken from his mother as a boy and made the ward of a rich industrialist. As a result, every well-meaning, tyrannical or self-destructive move he makes for the rest of his life appears in some way to be a reaction to that deeply wounding event.

Deep shadows and sharp angles transform a sprawling estate into a claustrophobic labyrinth of memory and regret. This sweeping portrait of a broken tycoon tracks the hollow accumulation of wealth through a fractured, non-linear lens.
