The last time I saw The Trial by Orson Welles it was on VHS; the teenage me probably taped a late-night TV broadcast of a cropped, substandard print. I saw it again last night. Wow. Every frame is a work of art, not least due to cinematographer Edmond Richard. Here's a short 🧵of frames.#cinema

@Richard_Littler right? We got to see it at the AFI last year and it was amazing! Utterly surreal and loaded with striking imagery. Welles really gives Bogdanovich a hard time for not liking it in his book. He was quite proud of it (as much as he could be!)

I own the original cinema poster for the Grman release (which of course uses Kafka's original title). Maybe it's time I got this one framed.
