About the show

Often considered to be the "greatest film of all time", 1941's Citizen Kane is a benchmark of the cinematic art form. However, hosts Max Bennion and Parker Rawlins have chosen to put that claim to the test. By examining films both past and present, the pair hold each up and ask the ultimate question - "Better Than Citizen Kane?" Hosts: Max Bennion, Parker Rawlins Editor: Parker Rawlins Produced by The Aud Brothers
