Orson wells pioneered many film shots (like having the background and foreground in focus simultaniously)
I liked the amount of thought and precision that went into every shot, as one of the first phycological films, you can tell everything is there for some purpose.
I liked the shots with the camera looking slightly up at Kane, giving the impression that he's bigger and more important.
other than charles Kane, the females are very strong characters in the film, starting with his mother (whos much stronger than his fathers character) and the two wives. His mothers unconditional love in sending him away for a better life, takes him on this journey to find love, thats what he wants to be loved. Quite stong in making you empathie with this character.
'Rosebud' thought to be a pet name for Hirst's (who Kanes based on) wives intimate female parts.
Could also allude to a time when he was poor but had love, he was happy and wanted nothing, before this graduall obsession with collecting statues ect.
Could be a metaphore for love/sex/lust, usually found in poetry.
