A textbook classic of film noir, the director's most proud work. A lengthy conversation with so much information that I can't accept it. I have to praise Wells for being a genius. Can the movie still play like this? The relationship between man and the environment is so accurately grasped by him and so absurd. The unique opening, the geometric composition, the expression of the grand environment, the long shots in many places, the fusion of German Expressionism and Kafka's "alienation"...

I haven't read the original, just came to analyze it blindly
I thought, as the title says, it was a nightmare. The scene of hundreds of people typing in the office is a copy and paste of reality. Many scenes in the film are so grand and illogical that they seem to be an enlargement of reality. Citizen k is always at the center of interpersonal relationships, and the dream is self; at the end of the film, k escapes the fate of being stabbed to death, which also proves that he is in a dream, and people do not die in their dreams. "Even if I didn't make...

[Film Review] The Trial (1962) 7.7/10
Orson Welles' modern interpretation of Franz Kafka's posthumously published eponymous novel, THE TRIAL opens with a pin-screen animation of the author's parable “Before the law”, which encapsulates the keynote of his pessimistic take on the nature of our society's involute law system: shutting down in front of any individual's face with a false promise.
A young man Josef K. (Perkins) is under...

Romy Schneider Retrospective, Great Light Hall 1, 2k Restoration, 8.6 points "Today, mother died. Maybe yesterday. I don't know." - Camus 1, only like Orson Welles Only geniuses can boldly put impossible adaptations on the screen and turn "Trial" into a movie, just like composing a movement for "Das Kapital". 2. From "Adagio" to modern-style classical, jazz soundtracks, and even all-purpose sound effects (such as the outdoor heavy rain in the lawyer's house), Wells' high-end taste in music...

For the first time, I didn't understand a movie at all. At first, I thought the protagonist was dreaming like "Vanilla Sky", until he was killed, and the subtitles came out. The whole movie is inexplicable, the only actor I know is Anthony Hopkins, the inexplicable court, the inexplicable plot, the inexplicable dialogue, the inexplicable ending, the movie channel put What is this film doing? Is it a reminder to all sentient beings to be careful when they are caught by the National Security...

The existentialist adaptation of Kafka is more ambitious and experimental than Welles' famous film debut Citizen Kane, which was only a minor Hollywood reversal. The film uses post-Caligari-style composition, elevation photography and other methods to deeply refer to everyone's guilt, "unwarranted" crimes, "unwarranted" death, life is but an absurd dream, and the law is lies and...

There is no way to adapt this thing. I still like novels. When perkins is nervous, people immediately travel to Psycho. When nervous, it is no longer absurd. When nervous, there is an illusion that things will be resolved. Like a dog, it's very second, and finally the window that appeared in the distance was canceled. The courtroom set is wonderful, and the director plays it well. fell asleep...

Joseph K.: I'd appreciate the return of my identification papers, please.
Inspector A: You seriously think that we don't know who you are? Really, Mr K. You're not doing your case any good, you know.
Joseph K.: Exactly what is this case you've been talking about?
Inspector A: I'm not talking about it.
Joseph K.: Well, why not? Why don't you talk about it? What am I charged with?
Inspector A: It's not for me to talk about your case.
-
Joseph K.: What's the charge?
Inspector A: Mr K, you aren't claiming innocence, are you?
Joseph K.: Naturally.

Inspector A: What's this? What's this pornograph?
Joseph K.: Oh, don't try to make anything from that!
Inspector A: No?
Joseph K.: Not unless you have a dirty mind.
