A solid early film fo Kobayashi. It's clear to see how films like this and Black River influenced his later masterpieces (we already see mentions of Manchuria here). I think Nakadai played a good role, along with a really solid female cast here. The plot was intriguing, the strategizing was interesting, and the ending was satisfying. I think this was a good film. Nothing crazy yet, but respectable
