Anyways, I am thinking of watching it again. But, before I do, I wanted to know what those who have seen it- think of it. Why is it such a great film? Please, share your thoughts and arguments. I'll get a bowl of popcorn.

If you're going to rent CK, I suggest you also rent RKO 281 which is the story behind the making of CK. It stars Liev Schrieber as Orson Welles (along with a lot of other great actors, including John Malkovich) and really details William Hearst and his power. You'll also find out the true meaning of "Rosebud", and it's definitely not a sled.
