      indisputably so!! it's a peice of art on its own.. and it's cheating by the way, for what is an easier or shorter way to guarantee you the best opening of a movie other than opening with THE ENTIRE text of a Kafka' short story, recited by the euphonious voice of Orson Wills? it's cheating.. sublime cheating!!

    It's all about letting the fear of regulation, red tape and the expectation of officialdom get in the way of your dreams. The repercussions he feared were in his head. The guard would have done nothing had he passed.

      bastard ; as ı understand ; Each person's struggle with bureaucracy is different. some person can crawled at the door of bureaucracy for years; may not pass a single guard; others can quickly do their job in bureaucracy in one go and in a short time .
      this explains some events very well for us.
      nobody is equal to justice, or in the eyes of bureaucrats. not everyone looks the same

    The law isn't about legal systems. It is about the system of ethical, metaphysical, and interpersonal relations. Every man strives to attain the law; every man strives to understand the world.
    And this man fails.

      a catch 22. the law should be accessible to every man, and it always is. but there are those who stand in the way of the truth, with their duties enforced by coercion citing power as the reason to exist. a man who holds the law as a value will obey force|power over truth. because of this paradox he will live unfulfilled, stagnating at the barrier of truth until death, only knowing it exists but never seeing it for himself. its a nightmare, trying to find justice.

      I think the door is representing the human mind, our own cage/prison that we cannot escape. The rest is just illusions that we are prone to as human beings. In Kafka's saying "I am a cage, in search of a bird."

    Literal laws are only made real through the threat of physical force, like the kind the guards wield. Otherwise, they're just ideas about justice, morality, or the good that exist nowhere but in our heads. So to "attain the law" we break it? Or maybe it means that we make its force our own, since it is our moral obligation not simply to believe what justice is iand be correct about it, but to act on that belief?

      It's not a song. Do you hear a singer? No singer = no song. Using the word "song" to describe a piece of classical music is an insult.

    If you are masochistic enough to watch this movie, good luck! You will not find a stranger film. It is not a pleasant experience at all and makes no sense. But this opening scene here is very good. Perhaps the information has already been provided somewhere, but who wrote this scene? Was it Welles? It has a timeless feeling and feels like it could have come from any country. If Welles wrote it, my hat is off to him. Does anyone know? Is anyone there? Or am I waiting outside my own door??

      Yes, since I wrote this I learned it is indeed from the book. Anyway it's a weird film and frustrating because it makes no sense. However I'm a big Orson Welles fan. I love Touch of Evil and Lady From Shanghai, even Macbeth.

    • @KingThrillgore

      I think Orson Welles wrote the scene, but it was produced by Alexander Lexileff and Claire Parker, on their 'Pinscreen' device, a monochromatic animation device.

      This is one of Franz Kafka's masterpieces, The Trial, which Orson Wells adapted in this film. The story is told in the book as a way of explaining what is happening to the protagonist. Notably, it doesn't actually explain anything but does raise the question if not explaining anything is in fact excusable. Was the guard being an asshole, or was he trying all along to encourage the man to go through the gate while covering his ass? It's not something the movie does but the book does bring it up.

      @@BS-cc4ks I read The Trial in high school or college but as was my wont in those days not in its entirety. If I remember correctly this is a novel Kafka never completed and what we have is sort of a jumble possibly an associate of his was able to put together. Was it one of those instances where the author requested his manuscript be burned but his wishes were not respected?
