i'm a great admirer of kafka's book and an even greater admirer of welles' cinematic genius. the trial stays true to it's haunting source material and is so far my favorite work from the master director, thanks to the great expressionist style. for many years to come, this will be the ultimate story of man's struggle against the absurd that slowly consumes him. about the system that grinds mankind into meat. the titorelli-scene is one of the most masterfully constructed scenes i've ever seen. read

the trial does a lot of things that normally make me love a film. it's artistic, gorgeously shot, atomspheric, and weird in exactly the way i like to see in a film. but once again, there was something stopping me from loving it. this is one of those cases where i can't figure out what that something is, even after quite a while of thinking. might just be the fact that this was written by kafka who kinda sucks ass. read
