Citizen Kane.
This movie transformed movie-making. If you don't believe this, then look it up on the vast Internet. I knew this 30 years ago before I knew about the Internet. The UCLA school of film-making still considers this to be the best movie of all time and the model for camera angles, color shading and stuff like that. Orson Wells was a genius. Fat? Yes! Genius? Yes! Sold wine for a living when he was REALLY fat? Yes! (The guy was still a genius, folks.)
The rest can be catalogued by the experts. Citizen Kane is still the quintensesstial movie, although today it looks hokey. It wasn't very high-tech. It actually was about plot and characters and that was about it.
