Citizen Kane
Movie • 1941 • Drama
ReportSynopsis
Newspaper magnate, Charles Foster Kane is taken from his mother as a boy and made the ward of a rich industrialist. As a result, every well-meaning, tyrannical or self-destructive move he makes for the rest of his life appears in some way to be a reaction to that deeply wounding event.

While no abuse is shown, Charles Kane had a sad childhood. Despite his protests, his mother sends him away to live with someone else and it's implied that this is partly because she wants to get him away from his alcoholic father.

In a way, yes. Not totally physically, but being forced to perform an opera over and over again without rest.

There are a few times where characters look into the camera while speaking, though not necessarily into the audience. Thatcher does it a few times at the beginning, and Leland at the Inquirer's office.
