The Rosebud

I believe there was an old film set in the Rosebud diner, right? Which was it?
Is there a whole history somewhere of the place?
my google/goodsearch-fu isn't giving me an answer.
Thanks!

I was spoiled on it by reading Peanuts collections as a kid, long before I saw the movie.

For what it's worth, the spoiler-sensitive aspect is not actually crucial to the movie. It's mostly just a framing device.

That's my favorite "Peanuts" cartoon ever.

My second favorite is the one where Lucy's re-reading "Little Red Riding Hood" and she defends that by saying "It's a new translation that clears up some formerly difficult passages!"

I see what I did there.

I want to post some other classic spoiler, but then I think "But what if someone didn't know they were all dead people?!" and I don't post.


Oops.
