The Trial (1962)

Artfully Surreal


One of the most artfully filmed movies - very much surreal. This is also one the best films roles for Anthony Perkins, he's perfectly and rightfully cast.

Imagine waking up and the police are in your room, you are told you are under arrest - but not in the traditional sense of the words "under arrest". Imagine you are made to stand trial for and never knowing what the charges are against you. You have to defend yourself without knowing what you are defending yourself against. This has happened to Josef K. (Perkins) in this dramatically bizarre, twisted mystery-thriller.

9/10
