The youthful Welles, himself a man of the world, depicted Kane as the epitome of American excess. Universal themes are certainly present, but this film is more about lost innocence as a by-product of instant wealth than it is about symbolism on a global scale.

What does that have to do with Citizen Kane? This movie is investigates the life of an American icon as seen through the eyes of other Americans. Are you sure that you didn't pick up a mislabled Fellini flick by mistake? ;^)
