Not Citizen Kane?

 

“Citizen Kane“ was not a 1939 film.  It was released a few years later, in the 1940’s.

A great book

A great film production....movie

A great theme.....”Tara’s Theme”

A great year, 1939, for Hollywood

 

Try watching it with the right attitude:  The Old South, Before, During and After the Civil War.

Try watching again after the first disappointment?  Not bloody likely, mate.

You have to watch it during the day, if you watch it in the evening with a glass of wine, you will be asleep before the Wilke's party is over.

And Snow White. A tour de force of animation. 

 

To me that is the gold standard for animated movies.

I actually was thinking that it would have been more tolerable if it'd had a young Duke in the cast....  

 

Now, I won't say that my eyes glassed over, but they sure as heck seemed to develop a waxey haze... 

Perhaps it is just you Hardpan. 1939 was a big year in Tinsel Town. But that said, perhaps you would be more at home with something out of 1939, as say, perhaps, "THE WIZARD OF OZ"? Or maybe, "STAGECOACH"?

Can you imagine TODAY, in 2020, such a large number of very good Hollywood movies being released?

No.
