Our Classic Movie Nights series is finally making its way to one of the greatest achievements in cinema history—Citizen Kane, Orson Welles’ groundbreaking debut that changed the language of film forever.

Equal parts mystery and character study, Citizen Kane isn’t just the story of a man—it’s the story of America told through the rise and fall of Charles Foster Kane, a newspaper tycoon whose final word sends a reporter on a labyrinthine quest for meaning. Welles directs, co-writes, and stars in this epic of fractured memories, unreliable narrators, and stone cold cinematography that still feels audacious over 80 years later. We know you’ve been told to watch this film your whole life, that it’s “the greatest movie ever made”, and so many other things, but trust us: this is a film best experienced on the big screen.

Make sure to get to the screening early, as our Marketing Director Bekah will be doing a very informative and entertaining presentation on the film before it starts!
