First of all, the title of the movie makes the urge to watch it. The elevator can lead to the death penalty table. What kind of elevator will this be? The characters in the movie are also very unique. The male lead is not a righteous person. He used his skills during the paratrooper period to kill the female lead's husband (referring to the plot of David in the Bible?) and forge it in order to stay with the lover forever. The scene of the suicide. But because of an oversight, he had to return to the scene of the crime, but for various reasons, he was locked in the elevator. Outside the elevator, two young men stole his car and killed two German guests at the hotel. The male protagonist trapped in the elevator turned out to be the murderer in the hotel murder case. In order to save the hero, the heroine follows the real murderer and brings the murderer to justice in the hotel. Because of this, she also exposes that she is the hero's accomplice in killing her husband (a wrong step is wrong). And what awaits them may be the disaster of prison or the death penalty stand. In the film, the use of props and the rendering of the atmosphere are fully done, and the plot arrangement is also very delicate. Because of this, a film from the late 1950s still has great reference value.
