Classics at the MIX: ‘Citizen Kane’ screening

Event description

  • Arts and entertainment

This awards season, we celebrate a film famous for not having won many of them despite being universally considered to be one of the greatest movies ever made: Orson Welles’ 1941 masterpiece “Citizen Kane,” the winner of a single Oscar (and Welles’ only) for best screenplay. The Sidney Poitier New American Film School professor and lover of classic cinema Joe Fortunato joins us for a special big-screen presentation of “Citizen Kane,” offering audiences the chance to experience "Fortunato Film School" on the big screen. The professor will break the film down for the audience, popping in with key insights and live commentary about "Citizen Kane" and its significance that will make even the most ardent cinephiles appreciate the classic in a new light.
