The Trial ... with Orson Welles and Anthony Perkins?
Quote:
|
Josef K wakes up in the morning and finds the police in his room. They tell him that he is on trial but nobody tells him what he is accused of. In order to find out about the reason of this accusation and to protest his innocence, he tries to look behind the facade of the judicial system. But since this remains fruitless, there seems to be no chance for him to escape from this Kafkaesque nightmare.

The man actually gets better legal advice from the mistress of his advocate (played by Orson Welles) than he gets from him. She advises him 'to confess'.
Amazing parallels with much of the discussion on this board.
Highly recommended viewing.
