A land surveyor attempts to infiltrate an impregnable castle.

12/03/2013

Great version of this -- really very close to the book, though with more of a focus on individual identity vs the larger bureaucracy aspect. Musically perfect, great cast, visually a little subdued... I kind of wanted something more Fellini-esque... fluid and creepy.
