Quote
Charles Foster Kane:
[to Thatcher]
The trouble is, you don't realize you're talking to two people. As Charles Foster Kane, who has 82,634 shares of Public Transit Preferred. You see, I do have a general idea of my holdings. I sympathize with you. Charles Foster Kane is a scoundrel. His paper should be run out of town. A committee should be formed to boycott him. You may, if you can form such a committee, put me down for a contribution of $1,000 dollars. On the other hand, I am the publisher of the Inquirer! As such, it's my duty - and I'll let you in on a little secret, it's also my pleasure - to see to it that decent, hard-working people in this community aren't robbed blind by a pack of money-mad pirates just because - they haven't anybody to look after their interests.

The trouble is, you don't realize
you're talking to two people.
00:00:06.017 --> 00:00:09.213
As Charles Foster Kane
who owns 82,364 shares...
00:00:09.381 --> 00:00:13.001
...of Public Transit Preferred. See,
I do have a general idea of my holdings.
00:00:13.026 --> 00:00:15.072
I sympathize with you.
Kane is a scoundrel...
00:00:16.002 --> 00:00:19.999
...his paper should be closed,
a committee formed to boycott him.
00:00:19.224 --> 00:00:22.936
If you can form such a committee,
put me down for a contribution of $1000.
00:00:23.103 --> 00:00:25.855
On the other hand,
I am the publisher of the Inquirer.
00:00:26.023 --> 00:00:30.109
As such it's my duty, I'll let you in on a
little secret. It is also my pleasure...
00:00:30.277 --> 00:00:34.405
...to see that the working people of this
community aren't robbed by a pack...
00:00:34.573 --> 00:00:37.116
...of money-mad pirates, just because...
00:00:37.534 --> 00:00:40.703
...they have no one
to look after their interests.
00:00:41.121 --> 00:00:44.999
I'll let you in on another little secret,
Mr. Thatcher:
00:00:44.208 --> 00:00:48.024
I think I'm the man to do it.
You see, I have money and property.
00:00:48.017 --> 00:00:52.002
If I don't look after the interests
of the underprivileged, somebody else will.
00:00:52.216 --> 00:00:54.217
Maybe somebody
without money or property.
00:00:54.385 --> 00:00:55.593
That would be too bad.
00:00:55.761 --> 00:00:57.804
I saw your financial statement today.
00:00:57.972 --> 00:01:00.089
- Oh, did you?
- Tell me, honestly...
00:01:01.001 --> 00:01:05.001
...don't you think it's rather unwise to
continue this philanthropic enterprise...
00:01:05.479 --> 00:01:08.999
...this Inquirer, that is costing you
$1 million a year?
00:01:08.607 --> 00:01:13.361
Yes. I did lose $1 million last year.
I expect to lose $1 million this year.
00:01:13.529 --> 00:01:16.114
I expect to lose $1 million next year.
00:01:16.001 --> 00:01:18.741
At the rate of $1 million a year...
00:01:18.001 --> 00:01:22.999
...I'll have to close
this place in 60 years.
00:01:31.922 --> 00:01:34.001
"With respect to the said newspapers..."
00:01:34.425 --> 00:01:36.843
...the said Charles Foster Kane...
00:01:37.996 --> 00:01:40.001
...hereby relinquishes
all control thereof...
00:01:40.973 --> 00:01:43.001
...and of the syndicates
pertaining thereto...
00:01:43.851 --> 00:01:49.001
...and any and all other newspaper, press
and publishing properties of any kind...
00:01:50.357 --> 00:01:52.001
"...and agrees to abandon
all claim thereto..."
00:01:52.818 --> 00:01:56.999
- Which means we're bust all right.
- Well, out of cash.
00:01:56.028 --> 00:01:57.739
All right, Mr. Bernstein.
00:01:57.001 --> 00:02:02.999
I've read it, Mr. Thatcher,
just let me sign it and go home.
00:02:02.494 --> 00:02:05.788
You're too old
to call me Mr. Thatcher, Charles.
00:02:05.956 --> 00:02:08.916
You're too old to be called
anything else.
00:02:09.003 --> 00:02:11.001
You were always too old.
00:02:11.999 --> 00:02:15.506
"In consideration thereof,
Thatcher & Company agrees...
00:02:15.001 --> 00:02:18.999
...to pay to Charles Foster Kane,
as long as he lives..."
00:02:18.999 --> 00:02:20.136
My allowance.
00:02:20.304 --> 00:02:24.013
"You will continue to maintain
