Why thank you.
There was movie making before Citizen Kane, and then there was movie making after Citizen Kane. That alone makes it epic. Wells was only 25 when he made it, had never directed anything prior, and had never worked in Hollywood. He went into it as a blank slate and pretty much made it up as he went along.
