reversed human nature

The best thing about this film is that it not only accuses and convicts the bourgeoisie in the film, but also makes us look at ourselves. Everyone sees the problem from a different angle and comes to different conclusions. There is no right or wrong conclusion, but the angle different. For example, at the moment when the daughter is trying on clothes and the heroine smiles, although it is unintentional, the inappropriate smile does hit the muzzle of the gun. Who is right and who is wrong at this moment? The film is good, but part of the content is a bit far-fetched, but the final reversal is not so strong, because from the beginning of the film, it is known that this person is not a police detective. The "person" that examines human nature.

Arthur Birling: [about his workers] If you don't come down hard on some of these people, they'll soon be asking for the earth.
Gerald Croft: [obsequiously] That's right.
The Inspector: They might. But it's better to ask for the earth than to take it.

Arthur Birling: [hanging up the phone] A girl has died. Suicide. A police inspector is on his way to ask us some questions.
