MEMBER FDIC The ads described it as “the love story that dared not be made.” Louella Parsons decried it as “trash.” John O'Hara hailed it as the best film he had ever seen. William Randolph Hearst attempted to have it destroyed. D.W. Griffith admired it particu- larly he said for the ideas that had been borrowed from him. The early draft of the screenplay by Wilkes Barre native Herman Mankiewicz, bore the title “John Citizen, U.S.A.,” which he later changed to “The American.” As “Citizen Kane," it opened at the Palace Theater in New York on May 1, 1941, becom- ing in time the film most" often put at the top of the list “of the 10 best films of all time. With a completely restored print struck for the occasion, “Citizen Kane” will play Friday, July 19, and Satur- day, July 20 at The F.M. Kirby Center in Wilkes-Barre. Be prepared. This is the movie event of the year, a chance to rediscover the verve of one of the most glorious achievements of American cinema. The film, which traces the rise and fall of a meglomania- cal, politically-ambitious publisher (modeled after William Randolph Hearst), A fresh print of ‘Citizen Kane’ at the Kirby has been interpreted as a cautionary tale of power, greed and spiritual loss. One 1941 critic thought Welles’ portrait of Kane fuzzy but praised the film for its “deeply moral thought” which the critic related to the biblical injunction about gaining the world at the expense of the soul. Tickets for “Citizen Kane” are now available at The Kirby box-office. J Special Events SUNDAYS THROUGH AUGUST, NATHAN DENISON HOUSE, 35 Denison St., Forty Fort. Historic 1790 home of Nathan Denison.
