Compared with the well-made movies of the same period, the protracted editing in some places makes people seem to be watching a movie in the 1930s; the rhythm of the first half is tight and climaxing, and the viewing experience is pushed to the direction of the playing cards thrown by lake. The pinnacle of tension; the standout feature compared to other Sombra is that lake's female character becomes the absolute center of the storyline rather than the traditional femme fatale seducing men to...

The legacy of the sea in the film noir. The shaping of the male protagonist is particularly wonderful. In just 80 minutes, his image and motives have undergone an earth-shaking reversal, and this is the reason why the female protagonist can fall in love with him.
