This is a rather shocking critical realism work. Wheeler's interpretation of human nature in Capitalist society has reached a ruthless level in this film. After watching this film, you can feel a chill and sadness after the decline of human nature. The film is adapted from Lillian Hellman 's play script, so the scene is very limited and narrow. The film of more than two hours is basically carried out in the room. Due to Wheeler's directing ability and emphasis on photography skills, Grieg was hired. ·Toland came to shoot the film, so although the characters have a lot of dialogue and a single scene, there is no dull feeling. Bette Davis 's outstanding performance brings the heroine's ruthlessness to the fore. The film's best performance is Patricia Russo , who plays Aunt Bertie. Her pain and forbearance are sympathetic, and her emotional outbursts bring tears to her eyes. Her appearance also best reflects the theme of the film

A good actor doesn't know how to recite lines. It's the reaction shots that really show their skills. Just look at Bette Davis when her husband is struggling. You don't need to say a word for peak acting.

The director's ruthless flogging of the bourgeoisie and the greed of criticizing human nature, the interior composition and shot scheduling are exemplary, the use of mirrors, stairs, various scenes and props, and a large number of depth-of-field shots profoundly demonstrate the multi-faceted nature of human nature. Betty's performance is really amazing~
