Post your favourite author and a movie that relates to him in some way Anonymous Sun Sep 3 15:02:08 2023 No.22452770 [Reply] [Original]

1. Franz Kafka
2. Beau is Afraid

Marathoned this movie today and really enjoyed it, both comedy and drama. Throughout 3 hours of this movie I felt like I did during reading The Trial by Kafka. The protagonist finds himself helpless in a world full of people acting bizarrely and hostile against him. His relationship with his mother resembles a relation Kafka had with his father. A narcissistic, abusive woman who wants to control every aspect of her own son, making him self-conscious and feeling guilty if he doesn't grant her every wish, even accusing him of hurting her. The final scene also draws some parallels to an ending of The Trial, as if from the very beginning the protagonist didn't have a say or ability to choose, he was a mere puppet with already established destination.
Genuinely great movie, truly captured le kafkaesque vibe

1. Paul Auster
2. Music of Chance (It's based on the Paul Auster novel of the same name. While the novel is nothing short of a masterpiece, the adaptation is pretty good, if nothing stellar. Also, fairly faithful to the source material)

Beau himself is static and bland, in the kind of film this character is in he should evolve somewhat. The "surrealism" is Mcdonalds tier shit it's devoid of any sort of artistic merit that surrealism does offer.
The film is one for the atheists and the blind. Pure consumerist crap.
