Today I purchased a DVD of this old B&W movie for $5.00. If I passed it up, I might never see it again. The price is not so much more than a two day rental.
This movie stars Anthony Perkins, Orson Welles and Jeanne Moreau.

I plan to view the movie and read the on-line text. I hope to return to this thread with some comments.
Milan Kundera, in his essays entitled "The Art of the Novel", makes some fascinating observations about Kafka in contrast to Cervantes, with regard to modern man suffering the punishment first, for some unknown crime, and then going in search of something transgression as a source of guilt. I have Kundera's essays here, so I will try to post excerpts on this topic. I am a little hazy on Kundera's exact argument, so I must re-read it.
I am a bit pressed for time, but I wanted to post something about this quickly, since it seems so interesting.
