The lost "Angel" doctor takes care of the gangsters who are drunk in the world, and the vicious circle has to be broken by the younger generation in the end. The political message is clear: criticize the filthy and foul-smelling social environment (mud pond), the Japanese blindly sacrificed too much (war), "reason is the medicine of life". On the screen, just two or three characters can create a sense of distance worth pondering; several large camera movements are also used. The temperament of the film is strong and rich. There are also entertaining passages such as guitar playing and cabaret singing and dancing. The soundtrack is also used a lot. The nightmare by the sea has a surreal meaning ("Wild Strawberry"?). The doctor's character has always been cute and humming, and the final fight scene is rather clumsy.

One of the three major types Kurosawa is good at, the projection of the status quo of post-war Japan, the rotten waste water pit, the sick man and the gangster leader who is strong outside the middle, and the young man full of hope, these appearances are not blind optimism to be pointed, but the elevation of the individual , the environment and the periphery are only a kind of auxiliary, the so-called things are man-made. The core of this film is very similar to the later "Wild Dog"
