Citizen Kane/YMMV


 * Crazy Awesome: Young Kane. His method of revitalising a failing newspaper is to move into the editor's office so that he'll always be close when news happens. It works spectacularly.
 * Fandom Heresy / Sacred Cow: The quickest way a critic or film school teacher can kill their street cred is to trash this film.
 * It Was His Sled: This film is the Trope Namer
 * Jerkass Woobie: Kane winds up more pitiful than pitiable.
 * Memetic Mutation: The Slow Clap seen in this film is infamous on the Internet.
 * Narm: "Don't you know who I am? CHAAAAAAAAAAAAARLES FOSTER KANE!"
 * Vindicated by History: Back in 1941, very very few people would describe Kane as the greatest of all films; it was in fact booed at the Oscars, and lost money at the box office.
