Citizen Kane

Citizen Kane continues to top lists about the best movies ever made, decades after its release in 1941. Orson Welles is a truly talented man – he directed, starred, and wrote in the film, after all. He must have been experiencing plenty of pressure back then. Perhaps this is why he said “Rosebud” instead of “No, my sled…” for the opening line.

We bet you would not be able to believe just how important the improvised line in The Wizard of Oz. Yes, it was for the legendary line, “I’ve got a feeling we’re not in Kansas anymore”. If Judy Garland didn’t say it, the movie would have been totally different and Wicked would not have been created!

It was, to say the least, a turning point for the film since it set the movie in the fantasy-land Oz. The movie was supposed to be called After The Tornado but, fortunately, it was changed to The Wizard of Oz.
