#Film Archive# "Heaven and Hell" is based on a detective novel by Ed McBain. The hour-long episode of the first part of the film takes place almost entirely in the living room of Gonto's house. In this closed space, Akira Kurosawa showed his extremely clever scene scheduling skills, and the first part is also the place where the original novel fits the most.

Judging from the composition of the living room, it is very delicate, and the positioning of each character is just right. The coquettishness of this scheduling is reminiscent of Du Qifeng. The money box thrown on the train has a tribute-style borrowing in "Rich and Rich". The characters are portrayed very delicately, the group scenes are not chaotic at all, and the rhythm is clear. In terms of the theme of the film, there is a gap between poverty and wealth, which may be as incompatible as the title of the film. If it always exists, how can some madness be avoided.
