Mind-Blowing Movie Plot Twists That Nobody Saw Coming

Citizen Kane

At the beginning of Citizen Kane, protagonist Charles Foster Kane (Orson Welles) dies, his last words being "rosebud." The movie follows a reporter, Thompson (William Alland), who attempts to uncover the mysterious meaning behind Kane's last words. "Rosebud" was the name of Kane's childhood sled, a representation of the innocence that Kane lost when his parents sent him into the city in hopes of making a name for himself.
