Citizen Yuppie (1987)

Overview

Roger Ebert reworks Citizen Kane through the low-fidelity lens of a Fisher-Price PixelVision camera, replacing Rosebud with “ROZEBUD,” the license plate on Kane’s BMW. Created for a 1987 "Siskel & Ebert" holiday gift guide segment, the one-minute short turns a classic film reference into a self-mocking joke about status, technology, and amateur filmmaking.
