Description
Alone at his fantastic estate known as Xanadu, 70-year-old Charles Foster Kane dies, uttering only the single word Rosebud. So ends the odyssey of a life, and begins a fabulous tale of the rise to wealth and power, and ultimate fall, of a complex man.
Description
Charles Foster Kane, a wealthy recluse, dies in his castle-like estate, Xanadu. The dying word on the lips of the newspaper tycoon who dominated four decades of American life is "Rosebud." A newsreel company assigns a reporter to learn why and to dig out the man behind the man. From various sources, Kane's life unfolds: his rise by taking a broken down newspaper he has inherited and, with two friends, Jedediah Leland and Bernstein, building it into a publishing empire; his marriage to Emily Norton, the niece of a U.S. president, that breaks down as he aspires to political power; the scandal after he becomes involved with an untalented singer, Susan Alexander, whom he later marries and tries unsuccessfully to turn into an opera star; retiring finally to a secluded life in Xanadu. Susan gets bored and leaves him alone and friendless. As his worldly goods are being disposed of, a child's sled bearing the word "Rosebud" is tossed unnoticed into the furnace.
