One of the most famous 20th century. Adaptation of Franz Kafka's novel. Orson Welles decided to make this film as an endless nightmare of reflections and shadows, he shot scenes in different places and cities, from the Orsay station in Paris to Zagreb, and the elongated figure and clumsy movements of the actor Anthony Perkins embodied the drama of the anti-hero who got into the labyrinth of bureaucracy. The Kafkaesque world allowed Welles to tell the story of his anxiety in cinema: "I was able to make this film because I have a recurring dream of guilt - I'm in prison and I don't know why. It is one of the feelings closest to my being." A personal, virtuosic, macabre movie of the cinema grand.
