This week, our pick must reduce all saturation and so we watch “The Trial,” a strange and unusual film about a man who has been accused of an unknown crime and who has to navigate a timeless and labyrinthine judicial system, about which he knows nothing.
Shot in black and white, from 1962, this visual treat is directed by Orson Welles and stars Anthony Perkins. It is based on the posthumously completed Franz Kafka novel “Der Prozess” and it certainly lives up to the bizarre, confusing, darkly funny and sometimes despairing world that Kafka is so good at creating.
We also talk about a recent trip to Iceland and some fun facts about this … well…. strange and unusual land.
We find our own podcast GUILTY…. of having too good a time!!
