    Citizen Kane.

    Yes it is circle jerked hard by film lovers… For good reason.

    This is what I might consider the first movie shot in what would be recognized as a modern movie format.

    It is told non sequentially, the composition of shots is absolutely incredible.

    It’s a movie shot in 1941 that looks nothing like the other movies of the time. Literally decades ahead of its time. It looks like it could have been shot a few months ago as a period piece.

    There’s good reason for it being one of the most acclaimed movies of all time.
