Citizen Kane (1941)

After hearing this mentioned on everybody's list and seeing it referenced everywhere, I finally sat down to watch it. It is probably a good film. I know because I saw how well it was shot and mostly acted sharply throughout. 

However, at some point my mother walked in and said "So have they said what Rosebud is, yet?" - Yet? Yet?? I didn't know you found out at all! For everybody's mentioning of the mysterious Rosebud, it could have stayed a mystery at the end for all I knew... and I didn't know. 

And that's why I've never seen Citizen Kane again.
