Round 2: Citizen Kane vs Pulp Fiction
Movie Madness is an event pitting 64 films against each other in a knockout tournament style where only one will triumph (to find out more, click here). This round... Citizen Kane vs Pulp Fiction. Who will progress to the next round? You decide.
Citizen Kane (1941)
A landmark in the history of film, Orson Welles' debut was formerly widely considered the greatest film of all time but hasn't aged as well as some. Opening with it's single, intriguing word of "Rosebud", the film goes on to track the life of newspaper magnate Charles Foster Kane. With innovative storytelling and cinematography, it has earned its place in history.
Pulp Fiction (1994)
In a year packed with quality releases (three of which appear in this competition), Pulp Fiction managed both commercial and critical acclaim, landing the Palme D'Or from Cannes. Quentin Tarantino's most celebrated film, it plays fast and loose with the narrative structure, is packed with self-referential humour and larger-than-life characters, and features some of the biggest actors of the time, including Bruce Willis, Samuel L. Jackson, John Travolta and Uma Thurman.
