The strength of this film is its subtlety, rather than hitting you over the head with obvious mechanisms. The cast is well-directed, and the actors are very believable. There are some great lines of dialogue, such as "Life is not a choice between good and evil; it is a choice between the lesser of two evils". How true. The protagonists are a young woman returned from a concentration camp (however, she does not look much worse for the experience), and an alcoholic doctor who looks like he went on a vacation to hell for a few years. (He does look worse for his wartime experience). The most chilling character in the film is the former Captain, who now owns a factory, but is actually a war criminal. We know who the murderer is, but the real mystery of the film is how he will meet his end. Solid filmmaking.
