Some say Orson Wells Citizen Kane is the best movie ever made. We love to see the mighty fall.
I don't know that many people say that because of the story though. It created many of the cinematography methods we still use today. Before it, movies were generally just recreating stage plays in front of a camera. Every scene a stationary shot framing the whole room. No real transitions. For Citizen Kane they tore apart the roof and floor to allow for a camera to get moving shots zooming into a scene and angles not often used before. It changed the way people thought of movies and what they could be. People do love watching the slow decline of the powerful, but that movie is considered one of the best movies for other reasons.
Citizen Kane is recognized for many different reasons, and that's one. But, in essence, the story is the film. Wells masterpiece was the result of a feud he had with William Randolph Hearst, so he brought him down on film. Wells also had the strange habit of divorcing wives and killing them off in one of his movies.
