Enough of this foolishness. ;-). I'd just like to say, don't be put off The Trial by all that nonsense about it being a metaphor for life. Not a jot of it. It is in fact top comedy

Hey! Did you people see the movie? Did I miss the laughable parts??? It's eerie, depressive, dark, scary.... Sure, there's irony all over, but not the sort that makes you laugh... I liked it, but it wasn't the sort of thing to lift my spirits... It seems to me the book (which I didn't read) leaves a very different impression compared to the movie. Did anyone read the movie AND see the book (well, the other way round)? So, which is it? a) Orson Welles really turned everything around in the movie; b) I didn't get any of it - the joke is too subtle; c) You people are laughing at that weird paranoia stuff; d) All of the above. ... Is there a comic book version of The Trial? Just wondering... :-) Pedro ----------------------------------------------------------------------- .
