Eager to have it in my collection, 29 December 2000
10/10
Author: (edward_evans-2) from San Francisco, California

The last time I was able to see this film was about three years ago. It was on tape and was on loan from a private collection. This is an excellent example of the moral genre of the period. The camera work shows great detail to use of light and position. I am eager to get this film in my collection and hopefully someone will see fit to put this on DVD.
