god the acting is sooooo awful

David Fincher, who is one of the hottest directors in movies today, apparently borrowed elements of this scene for his great 1989 Madonna video "Oh, Father."

@wkbfutewc Concerning your last point, I read somewhere that it's a widespread misconception that Kane's father was abusive. The line "where you can't get at him" didn't suggest abuse back then.

I feel pissed when I get to know that this movie didn't even won Oscarfor best Cinematography. What the hell Oscar!!!

"I got his trunk all packed. I had it packed all week... that's why he got to be brought up where you can't get at him."

This is just so brilliant.
One minute and forty six seconds until the first cut. from the boy playing with the sled to Agnes Moorhead opening the window.
Only actors who did their apprenticeships on stage could have done this scene.
A great piece of directing too. And the cinematography is just brilliant.
A critical piece to the whole story, she wants him away from his brutal father and Charlie never knows real happiness again. It's covered with snow.
