I still don't get how citizen Kane is rated. I watched it once, almost as boring as rabbit proof fence.
Yeah don't let Citizen Kane put you off other films of a similar vintage. Orson Welles was obviously a gun in his day but there are other directors of that time that haven't aged at all.
There are a lot of movies in that list which are better than Shawshank IMHO. I have nothing against that movie, it's a really good movie. But no. 1 really overrates it.
Agreed it is a great movie but not no 1 all time. I'm not actually sure what I'd put there tbh. Would take some serious thought.
