All that I could add to what 'Phlouder wrote is that "Kane" really moves cinema beyond the realm of "filmed drama" like you would see on a stage. To a very considerable degree, Welles exploits the unique abilities of film to tell a story, to be evocative and non-literal. It does not hurt that the story itself is rich with important themes and that the acting is first-rate.
