4PM: FEATURE FILM - Steven Soderbergh did a 180 degree turnaround from his debut film “Sex, Lies, and Videotape” with KAFKA (1991, 105 min) - a stark art-film fable for literature majors. Jeremy Irons plays a fictional Franz Kafka, living in Prague in 1919. By day, Kafka works in a massive, impersonal insurance company. At night, he spends his time alone writing stories about men who turn into giant cockroaches. Although quiet and solitary, he becomes a suspect in a murder investigation. Irons inhabits a world that owes a great deal to other movies. Mysterious and stylish, it is one of Soderbergh's most fascinating films.
