The prisoner-of-war camp movie directed by the old drunkard Billy Wilder, the story takes place in the US military barracks in the German prisoner-of-war camp at the end of World War II. The protagonist William Horton is a villain. He runs a black market in a prisoner-of-war camp. His business scope includes pornography, gambling, and drugs. He made shochu to ensure the quality, but not to blind customers; he runs underground horse racing, where the contestants are the rats caught, all with nicknames; he also has binoculars to spy on the Soviet female prisoner of war camp in the distance. Because he was so heartless that he would not succeed in gambling to escape from prison, he was suspected of being a ghost in the camp and was abused. In the end, he designed to expose the spies and risk escorting the enemies in the army to escape from prison. Before leaving, he said to all his roommates: "If we meet again in the United States, don't pretend to be my old friends."
