10 Classic Movies Most People Lie About Having Seen

2. Citizen Kane

What's worse than having not seen Casablanca, a film widely regarded as one of the greatest films of all time? Not having seen Orson Welles' Citizen Kane probably just surpasses it in the "I can't believe you haven't seen that" list. Even more than Casablanca, Citizen Kane is credited as being one of, if not the, greatest film in the history of motion pictures. It is heralded by many major critics and used as a textbook for film students and aspiring filmmakers. A lot of people haven't gotten around to seeing the film, but that hasn't stopped them from lying and saying that they have. People don't want to admit they haven't seen films that they are 'meant' to have seen and few films are held with as high regard as Citizen Kane is. Go and see it if you haven't already, if only to finally get about eight hundred references The Simpsons has made to it.
