Citizen Kane is a 1941 classic American dramatic film, the first feature film directed by Orson Welles who also co-authored the screenplay. It was released by RKO Pictures. The story - often considered to be a veiled portrayal of the life of William Randolph Hearst - traces the life and career of Charles Foster Kane, a man whose career in the publishing world is born of idealistic social service, but gradually evolves into a ruthless pursuit of power. Narrated principally through flashbacks, the story is revealed through the research of a newspaper reporter seeking to solve the mystery of the newspaper magnate's dying word, "Rosebud".
