WARNING: Video contains spoilers.

A comparative analysis of the narrative choices in Citizen Kane and Rashomon. Both films have storytellers relaying their own perspective of events, but subtle differences in execution lead to a dramatically different effect from both films, leading to what I'm calling "The Citizen Kane Effect" and the "Rashomon Test".

I'd love to hear your thoughts in the comments. Additionally, if you like what you see here, be sure to like at subscribe. At Eyebrow Cinema, we strive to make informative and entertaining video essays on filmmaking.
