Such moments come too seldom. On the whole, Director Kramer has almost arrogantly exceeded his judicial warrant. He has also crudely mismanaged both actors and camera, and has carelessly permitted several reels of fat to accumulate around the movie's middle. Many moviegoers may find themselves nodding sadly when the defense attorney sadly inquires: "Do you think those people over there have any concept of our problems...

Reforms are long overdue in South Korea, and the efforts of Park* and his 27-man junta go deep, reaching down to the smallest details of life...
