Kane


Yesterday was a rare day when I found that I had the house all to myself for a few hours in the morning. So I popped some popcorn and put Citizen Kane in the DVD player. It was as great as I remembered. It had probably been twenty years since I had seen it last. And now, it resonates with the surreal cult of personality that has surrounded Trump the past several years. A 1941 movie with eerie prescience for the 2020s.
