pretty good
it must have been a new technique at the time (1941)..
they show this mogul (think howard hughes crossed with w.r. hearst)'s death and he says Rosebud right before he dies...
the movie is a bunch of flash backs trying to figure out what it meant, but in the mean time it describes his life....
the ending is very clever

From IMDB:
William Randolph Hearst was infuriated by this movie, obviously based on his life. According to an essay written for the New York Review of Books by Gore Vidal "Rosebud" was Hearst's name for long-time mistress Marion Davies' clitoris. But screenwriter Herman J. Mankiewicz insisted that he took the name from a bicycle he owned as a child.
