Mirror, mirror on the wall.

The effect is used in one of the greatest shots in any movie I've seen, in Citizen Kane, when Orson Welles is walking down the hallway and we see him projected in a mirror about a dozen times. It's supposed to show Kane reflected in every stage of his life or something symbolical like that. Immediately after seeing it I tried the effect with a lit candle. Was pretty cool.

Citizen Kane was a OK story, but the techniques it employed were amazing; one of the first movies that had pans and tracking shots.

The story is average, but a definate classic.

...What exactly in the hell does that have to do with anything? I was saying the SHOT was great, I didn't say my opinion of the movie. Sorry I couldn't pick a better example of a classic for you, like Bio-Dome or Police Academy V.
