Crispin Glover & Tallulah's Kafkaesque Surrealist Film Mr. K Has Been 20 Years in the Making

Things get very weird and wonderful in Mr. K. Fresh off the Toronto International Film Festival 2024, Mr. K is a beautifully crafted yet increasingly bewildering story of a man — a traveling magician (Crispin Glover) — who checks into a once-grand but now rundown hotel. What’s supposed to be a one-night stay ends up becoming the experience of a lifetime. When Mr. K finds himself unable to leave the hotel, madness ensues. As if that weren’t enough, the hotel’s quirky inhabitants, ranging from a group of musicians to a busy kitchen crew, offer him little help.

Inspired by Franz Kafka’s tales of helpless characters stuck in absurd, Sisyphean situations, Mr. K. promises rich world-building and even richer performances. Collider’s own Steven Weintraub had the opportunity to talk more in-depth about Mr. K with director Tallulah H. Schwab and cast member Glover at the Collider interview studio at TIFF 2024, held at the Cinema Center.
