REGENT THEATRE
“CITIZEN KANE.” The outstanding picture, “Citizen Kane,” which will be shown tonight, is so revolutionary in all departments that it is impossible to make a comparison; it flouts all the accepted rules of Hollywood picture making. The film is composed of vividly dramatic sequences re-created bytheposthumour examination of a man s life by reporters assigned to discover e meaning of the dying Kane’s last word. The cast is about as perfect as any seen in a film, and only a few of its members have previously appeared on the screen. In addition to Orson Welles as Kane, leading players include Joseph Cotten, Dorothy Comingore, Everett Sloane and Ray Collins. A splendid picture associated with the “Bonds for Bombers” appeal was one of the outstanding items of the programme.
