Putting aside all the innovative, creative techniques...

63.176.25.26

what remains is a fascinating (to me, anyway) story of a wealthy playboy-to-be who becomes "serious"--and how his entire life was underscored by sadness buried deep within his childhood. It is also a biting comment on how immense power and wealth alone cannot enrich a life. Similarly, the hubris of power is painfully communicated.
The thundering performance of Welles is also amazing...he was, in a way, portraying his career (as well as that of Hearst, of course).
If all else fails: Think of it, Vic, as an elegy to Bush! Yep, the bon vivant turned president has admitted that he has never fully gotten over the death of his sister when she was a 3-yr. old.
