The Trial

The Trial is a intersting movie which is directed by Orson Welles , based on the Franz Kafka's novel of the same name 'Trial'. In many ways, it's an extremely difficult, often infuriatingly self-indulgent movie that really doesn't capture the essence of Kafka's novel. But it's also completely absorbing, almost gleefully Wellesian in every frame, and altogether an unforgettable experience

the movie trial is extremely difficult and ultimately rewarding from the most american movies and its something that makes you think hardly while you are watching the film. Also this movie makes you feel confused. Because ıt ıs not so easy to follow the story line easily. The main story of the movie is about a man named Josef K. , who is woken up early one morning by two groups of men, one claiming to be police and the second other workers from his office. They tell him that he’s under arrest and interrogate him, but he’s never told what crime he’s being arrested for, and he claims innocence. Right in the opening scene, Welles the director confuses the wiever by making some ınteractions in the film like taking spoken lines by the chracters come back around with the completely different meanings just in a few minutes later. When ı was watchiing this film i feel umprepared and ı thought that ıs the major part of this film makes on wiever. I think the trial is such an impressive and different movie. I cannot say that ı understand whole fılm completely but ı found ıts style very ınteresting and ı think that everybody would watch ıt.

The movie has differentations from the novel such as the director Welles changed the manner of Josef K.'s death. Kafka originally had the executioners pass the knife over the head of Josef K., thus giving him the opportunity to take the weapon and kill himself, in a more dignified manner In the film, whilst the executioners still offer him the knife, Josef K. refuses to take it,. The film ends with the smoke of the fatal dynamite blast forming a mushroom cloud in the air while Welles reads the closing credits on the soundtrack.
