You know how Citizen Kane is an oooookaaaay movie from a modern perspective but from the perspective of any movie that came out before it it's OMFG AMAZING because it introduced nonlinear time, ECU, voiceover, and a half-dozen other cinematic conventions we take for granted now?

That's the Mona Lisa.
